ive honestly never felt such feral rage

i think it's this savagery born of someone rendered helpless in a bleak situation, lashing out as you view the world shake its head and discuss your well-being as if you weren't aware--like you can't hope to comprehend what's best for you

i want to scratch and bite and scream and choke

and i sit here with this unfamiliar sensation--an overwhelming ferocity ive never experienced before

and i recognize that this pain isn't even mine. not directly

so if im so overcome with this after only weeks of simply reading about these injustices, what will living with them for years do to you?

#dick moves with d #i actually want to vomit #and for anyone saying I should step away that's not really what this is about #stepping away will do nothing bc reading about these stories isn't making my throat close up #it's the knowledge it's happening #that it's still going on and the world could literally stop it #but instead the un rings alarm bells for yet another week of the humanitarian crisis becoming dire #approaching levels of critical failure #have we not reached that point? do we refuse to acknowledge it bc doing so #is admitting that we simply let it happen as opposed to the narrative #that we are working to prevent it?
