“THE WORLD USED TO BE SILENT / NOW IT HAS TOO MANY VOICES / AND THE NOISE / IS A CONSTANT DISTRACTION / THEY MULTIPLY, INTENSIFY / THEY WILL DIVERT YOUR ATTENTION / TO WHAT’S CONVENIENT / AND FORGET TO TELL YOU / ABOUT YOURSELF / WE LIVE IN AN AGE OF MANY STIMULATIONS / IF YOU ARE FOCUSED / YOU ARE HARDER TO REACH / IF YOU ARE DISTRACTED / YOU ARE AVAILABLE / YOU ARE DISTRACTED / YOU ARE AVAILABLE / YOU WANT FLATTERY / ALWAYS LOOKING TO WHERE IT’S AT / YOU WANT TO TAKE PART IN EVERYTHING / AND EVERYTHING TO BE A PART OF YOU / YOUR HEAD IS SPINNING FAST / AT THE END OF YOUR SPINE / UNTIL YOU HAVE NO FACE AT ALL / AND YET / IF THE WORLD WOULD SHUT UP / EVEN FOR A WHILE / PERHAPS / WE WOULD START HEARING / THE DISTANT RHYTHM / OF AN ANGRY YOUNG TUNE – / AND RECOMPOSE OURSELVES / PERHAPS / HAVING DECONSTRUCTED EVERYTHING / WE SHOULD BE THINKING ABOUT / PUTTING EVERYTHING BACK TOGETHER / SILENCE YOURSELF.”
