I long for silence.

Hey y'all

Any feedback helps, if you hate it, LET ME KNOW. You won't offend me. This is still in progress; it's also the first lighthearted poem I've written. I'm trying to get away from the super sad grunge emo poems, I feel like that's all I write.

I long for silence

Too many loud noises these days!

So I turn up my radio as loud as it can go

I let the windows down to make sure I hear the trucks and their cacophony of moving parts

I read every billboard, every bumper sticker, and every slur spray-painted on a railcar

Still too loud...

Shocked, I let out a long yell,

Maybe that will give me some quiet.
