1, [highlighted in pink] I fear I will be ripped open and found unsightly.

2, “I don’t know what’s going to come out of me,” I told her. “It has to be perfect. It has to be irreproachable in every way.” / “Why?” she said. / “To make up for it,” I said. “To make up for the fact that it’s me.”

3, A sculpture of a pale person looking down at their long black hair that trails out in front of them.

4, (a script) Will Graham – I could use a good scream. I can feel one. Perched under my chin. / Alana Bloom – Let it out. / Will Graham – I’m afraid if I started, I … wouldn’t be able to stop.

5, A painting of the head of a blonde woman in the bottom left of the frame. Her mouth is wide open while her eyes are closed and she holds up her hands. One pink octopus and several blonde heads seem to have come out of her mouth and float towards the top right of the piece. The background is a dark blue.

6, “I am / afraid / that if / I open / myself / I will not stop / pouring. (why do I fear becoming / a river. What mountain / gave me such shame.)”

7, But toward him there is something fierce and terrible in me eligible to burst forth, / I dare not tell it in words, not even in these songs.
