If the letters of her poetry are not red the violent expression yearning to be heard is. Debbie makes a spectacle of herself trying to be heard, trying to find herself within all the voices. Defining a line between mentally ill with low Seratonin levels having to fork big bucks for a one month supply of Prozac while those prescribing it pass judgments not well suited to those just trying to get by. Her point is very powerfully expressed and if you listen close enough voices may emanate into one emancipated scream for acknowledgment of what's really wrong with the world today.
