After the shouting
Stops, glass tinkles as sirens
Approach, childhood wounds.

After the shouting
Stops and cheers were shared all round
We saw the new world

Rabid teachers
screaming plenty
bad #Education
#AfterTheShoutingStops
moving out of foetus position
#RememberWhen
innocence prevailed
and #Arcadia gave us dreams

Our words lie broken,
Sharp fragments, scattered on the floor,
A battlefield of trust.

💔 ⚔️

My head wants to split
As I try to keep everything
In focus
#AfterTheShoutingStops
I breathe
#Education ends
Where experience begins
#RememberWhen
We didn't dream of #Arcadia

The judge will take account of
your positive #intention
but #aftertheshoutingstops,
#differ in your attitude
or be unable to #lift
your head in this town again.
Your #education will not
rescue you from this disgrace.

In the car driving home
Shouting all alone
Angry at the world
Finally able to let it out
In a road rage restaurant
Table set for one
No words
Only shouting
Nothing that makes sense
A hobo ramble
But you can afford a car
Will you be home
After the shouting stops

thirteen year old me
looks up and the ceiling
then back down
at my homework

The fighting is over
The shouting now silence
We’ve proven nothing
But our propensity
For violence
The brutality
And ignorance
In the end
Our insignificance
Was shown
The fighting is over
The earth will feast
On our bones

That internal clamour
as if a thousand voices
rise up
all at once.

Eyes closed,
deep breaths,
self-kindness—
skills that have taken
a lifetime
to learn.

I will figure out
what's wrong

only after

the shouting stops.

We lived in the cracks
the walls camouflage all the unspeakable things
#aftertheshoutingstops
secrets were only ours to keep.,,.

After the shouting stops
the painful silence begins
eyes avoiding contact
deep reflection
calculations
the future in sharp focus
decisions begin to be made
tears trickle down faces
some apologies put in place

After the shouting stops,
we can hear again
the wind rustling in the trees
and the birds singing.

Maybe we can hear also
hear again, what we are saying
and not just how it is said.

#education is the only portable possession you can always own. #aftertheshoutingstops, the bombs fall silent, the fire burns out, all that's left is what's in your head.
Ask a refugee immigrant.

The deep purples bloom
As red and blue lights fade
The charade must resume
Scrub away the stains
Make right all the costumes
Ready another parade
Remake all the props
After the shouting stops
