Shhh, listen
Listen to the words whispered in by the wind
Hear the shouting of flightless birds,
And the hushed voices of drowning fish.
Listen to what the world is telling you,
To what the trees are screaming at you,
To what the dirt utters.
Just listen.
Don't speak,
Don't shout,
Don't whisper,
Don't even think.
Just listen.
Listen to the sound of crying dewdrops,
and the shrill screaming of upturned earth.
Listen to the maniacal laughter of machinery
