Text:
"i do not distinguish between their anxiety and mine
it smells unpleasant and transfers itself to me
anxiety is the cause of love loveless people the cause of harshness and terror
i cant live in peace and quiet with this anxiety
i must scream anxiety gives the boxed in feelings the upper hand and they stifle me
i am withoutme i am a slave to the vast force of anxiety
By Birger Sellin"
