The
world
comes
at
me
full
blast
.
So
much
light
and
sound
.
I
run
into
the
forest
to
find
relief
in
the
drip
of
rain
melting
the
inky caps,
but
even
there
I
can
hear
the
drone
of
traffic
from
the
highway
.
My
own
ears
broke
decades
ago
,
the
delicate
mechanisms
damaged
by
sonic
waves
produced
by
the
violent
assault
of
a
high_school
dance
.
Now
I
carry
a
relentless
hum
inside
my
head
--high pitched
ringing
, hissing,
screaming
.
Even
silence
is
loud
.
I
look
for
ways
to
neutralize
the
whine
:
the
rush
of
the
river
,
the
wind
brushing
the
trees
’
hair
,
a
shifting
musical landscape
made
of
water
and
air
.

Is
so
faulty
I'm
surprised
there
hasn't
been
an
electrical
fire
yet
.
I
imagine
it
was
installed
by
drunk
pigeons
rather
than
anything
approaching
an
electrician.
