“There was something peculiarly gratifying about shouting in a blind rage until your words ran out. Of course, the aftermath was less pleasant. Once you'd told everyone you hated them and not to come after you, where exactly did you go?”

Of not being able to express
With a shout, an extreme and bitter shout,
The bleeding of my heart.”

Shout it to the world, world
I'm your freaking girl
Anytime you need me, you just have to say the word
Have to say the word, word
I'm your freaking girl”

“Until, when all is legend
And many years have passed,
On a great Campo di Fiori
Rage will kindle at a poet's word.”

Czeslaw Milosz (1911–2004) Polish, poet, diplomat, prosaist, writer, and translator

"Campo dei Fiori" (1943), trans. Louis Iribarne and David Brooks
Rescue (1945)
Context: Those dying here, the lonely
Forgotten by the world,
Our tongue becomes for them
The language of an ancient planet.
Until, when all is legend
And many years have passed,
On a great Campo di Fiori
Rage will kindle at a poet's word.

“Some drivers have already got out of their cars, prepared to push the stranded vehicle to a spot where it will not hold up the traffic, they beat furiously on the closed windows, the man inside turns his head in their direction, first to one side then to the other, he is clearly shouting something, to judge by the movements of his mouth he appears to be repeating some words, no one word but three, as turns out to be the case when someone finally manages to open the door, I am blind.”

now keeps shouting inane instructions.
That's why I ran to the woods.”
