We make noise.
We sit and chat and flap our gums
like they're ****** fans.
open close
open close
open
passing hot air, noise,
close.

And then you drop
lightly
clearly what it is you want your noise to be saying.
No hot air.
No gas.
Just a need to be heard and something made of real words.
But they go on
open close
open close
open
Shut up. Anna is talking.
