In deafness can be heard a hissing, ringing tone. The power of which dominates all air, distance and occupies the sound proof room in faceless, painless texts that conceal the voice behind the deal. Never touching ears...no one hears. We wait for the beep, signal, song or just plain siren that says, you may listen now and possibly speak to one another breaking the thick glass that maintains our muteness. 8/2/19 'STRAND SELECT D Brian Strand, Sponsor

When there is hearing loss, there is tinnitus, a hissing sound in the deafness.
