Just, listen.

listen,
no one does it anymore.
swimming in a sea of words,
it's all to easy to be drowned out.
louder and LOUDER, they reach a crescendo,
all those voices clamouring to be heard.
fortissimo. the biggest of sounds,
the echo of echoes, it shakes the ground,
rattles windows, pounding bass reverberating in my chest.
the volume with which none can contend.
