Some Things Because They're Quiet




Struggles rhyme with very few things and drag out over long and unexpected times.

Because they are quiet, there is an ongoing discussion of adding some sounds to electric cars.

A wooing or a beeping, maybe.

An artificial sound, they say.

What's going on here?

It's mornings. It's Sunday.

The cats are awake and doing the grooming thing

That comes in between stretches of wanting to kill things.

Because they're quiet in long grass

Because he's quiet in a perch with a bow and arrow

Because they're quiet when they're hoovering up your call data or your internet searches

Because it's quiet when it works through your blood stream

Because they're quiet the way they live in your gut but talk to your brain

Not so much talk as send signals, but you get the picture

And maybe it's all an accident but we're thousands of years past sweating intention in things like this

Aren't we

What's going on here? / Do you see what's going on here?

I could go on.
