MISSION STATEMENT

SILENT VOICES SPEAK started out as Silent Voices: A Writer’s Workshop, as the first group at the drop-in center at the Broadway location of Community Counseling Centers of Chicago, whose purpose is to empower it’s attendees to form and attend their own groups.

We have branched out as an independent entity. We are silent no more. We say yes to the creative possibilities of life & art...

The mission of SILENT VOICES SPEAK is to give a voice to people who are disenfranchised. Many of the participants in SILENT VOICES SPEAK are also visual and/or performing artists.

Membership is open to all.

Bugger Me



by Kathy Powers
Bugger me you buggerers
When I’m not around.
Tell me all your nasty things
When I can’t be found.
Sing me songs of ugliness
When my ears are plugged.
Drink to all my loneliness
When I’m being hugged
If you do these things for me
Then I’ll strike you back;
I’ll ignore your pleas for happiness
When your hour’s most black.
