Whats All the Buzz
I thought it might all be in my head. The buzzing at night. The incessant buzzing sound. It was as if bees had settled in my headboard. Was it between my ears. No one talks of such things until one did and then I found out many, many people were hearing the sound. A neighbor posted and asked. Many said they have heard it for years. Plausible explanations - the wind, transformers, aliens, drones, trucks on the highway, angel’s waxing trumpets. Some say they have heard it in other states too. My eyes finally close every night after they blink and check. No monsters under the bed, scratching at the window pane, only a sound that you're afraid, when it is yours alone, that your insane. If I am, then so are they. Answer me, have you ever heard this sound as you settle in for the night and wondered like me. What did you think?!
