Havana Syndrome

It's not a secret 
sonic weapon 
deployed 
by a hostile
geopolitical power,
it's not a mass 
psychogenic 
illness. 

Its something much 
more mundane,
says the electrical 
and computer 
engineering professor:

"It's only crickets;
the mating call 
of the short-tailed 
West Indies cricket, 
to be specific,
(of course it is),
with a chirp 
that’s extremely 
annoying 
to the point 
it can cause harm 
to humans."

So, if the cricket
sounds cause
headaches, 
ringing ears,
fatigue,
and brain damage,

just calm down
and don't be 
hysterical
about it.
