people talking loudly
whilst yet accepting what is
we make peace with incongruity 
recognising the looming gap 
between desire and reality
yawn and then move on

Auscultation

...Hearing vibrations
passivity strains
Learning to listen
hearkening reigns
Sound and resonance 
euphony binds 
Volition the ears
