Analysis of Its The Sound
Jasmin Jay 2004 (Riverside California)
The sound
its the sound
the ringing
the screeching
the revolting sound
it's killing me
that beastly sound that smothers me
it reaches me and turns me closer to death
that sound
that sound that I abhor
that sound that makes me retch in disgust
that sound that makes me loathe my own ears
THAT SOUND, THAT SOUND, THAT SOUND!
that sound..... your voice
