I think Vincent Van Gogh sliced off his ear to drown out the noise. Life is so **** loud all the time with its crashing and banging And sounds of screeching halts in action. Keyboard clicks and the voices of Charlie Browns teachers. I feel lost in this soundscape and not in a good way. Tires and church bells the sounds of the drooling mob drive me mad. I can't hear myself think anymore, My soliloquy swallowed by the utterances of curses and cries of crows. If the world would silence itself for just a moment, I could sigh in relief.
