I SHOULD BE EMPTYING OUT

the

white noise lingers

like

a forgotten subscription

raging 

in the downtime

when

its almost voices

its almost harmony

its a radio dial

to beige space static

its the 

homey hum of landline dial-tone

swollen 

with the noise of the world

faceless

anonymous

&

blue
