Auditory Rhythm

I've been thinking

about

the art of speaking

auditory rhythms

and the like

in my very personal

opinion

these audio utterances

so often used

by the population

have become

somewhat

like pollution

fogging gracelessly

over the small drops

of wisdom

uttered

in near silence

if you actually listen

you'll probably hear them

somewhere

under the blurtations

of the unconsidered

thoughtless thoughts

they're there.

If you listen

the art of quiet

uncovers many surprises
