silencio

When I’m not tapped into a music stream.

I like quiet
no - let’s be exact,
I like silence
ear plugs in - deafening quiet
or better yet, noise cancelled anti-sound
That’s relatively new technology
My mom mentioned new studies suggest it may rewire things
gray matter wise, you know, behind the eyes
like the patterns sound forms in sand.

But if you’re going to

that's the sell

(a series of micro vignettes)

Chella and I are reading our analysis assignments together because that’s how we link and build.
We read out loud too, because how else can you judge the flow?
When my phone, lying on the table, jiggled. The caller ID read, “Tommy’s girlfriend.”
Chella gave me a little look. “I never change anyone’s ID,”

Wait I'll take my headphones off

Please go ahead and talk talk
Anyway these people will stalk stalk 
I don't want to walk walk 
around or somewhere else, even though if I just need to rotate at my moms house
But don't scratch my face with the chalk chalk 
Wait, will I notice?
Can I ecounter you? Because I always balk balk 
It's okay

About Headphones and Melody

Once there was a song,
That reminded me of you,
While I felt so strong,
Under sky,
Of midnight blue.
Once there was a time,
While I played a favorite tune,
A pen and written lines,
Cried, 
A thought of you.

Headphones

My heart is a pair of tangled headphones
The music still plays but the melody is twisted
All I do is try to unravel the notes
And understand the lyrics 
But I can’t because someone has tangled my headphones
Before it was just a matter of pressing play
But now it’s so much more complicated
See you’ve taken the melodies and

Lonely Headphones

Sleep provides me with peace as i carry myself away musically.
Inisde a bubble where a city never sleeps.
As if a coma were to live in every wrinkle of an earthquake.

I have no friends nor love ones today....

For if i did i would never feel this way.
But why should i complain or pretend someone will hear

Headphones

Look at me with my headphones on
trying to drown out the sounds that 
affect my zone.
Turn them down and I have found 
what upsets my dome,
A bunch of bombs, bullies, and 
bullets that infect my home.
So I blast and blare bass to protect 
my bones
Otherwise my eyes are raped by a 
place unknown...
I tend to

Through Headphones

everything sounds better 
through headphones---
every succulent morsel of music
drips from the wires lodged in the ears or
packed tight against the head,
sometimes completely encapsulating our ears,
hell, boxing our whole heads into 
our own personal listening studio
everywhere we go, at most times of the day---
one imagines that Nietzsche, who died 10 years too early
to experience the wonder

Headphones

You make me seem like a girl
With all the twists and curls
I wear it
Seem deaf

I do not care
I do not fear
Its with me
That’s all I care

Provides melody
A vision for life
A moment of peace
An instance of joy

Different from the rest
Lost in the thoughts
Yet we stay
Much in the present

It’s whispers into our ears 
Yet we are aware

Lost My Damn Headphones

Ears being tortured
by the feeble music
on the jukebox,
    mind sporadic,
losing my train of thought
         to Madonna.
Ideas mottled
   by conversations
like something gnawing on wood
in my ears.

My horrors
   are hidden from me
by the likes of Beyonce’
blaring throughout the place,
