Hearing “Loss”

It is hard to hear

What needs

To be heard

When you bring

Your “own” ears

To wherever

The dialogue

Is audible

Regardless

What the

Hammer, anvil and stirrup

Are trying to

Pound, blow and

Kick through

Preconceived

Notion filter

Rendering

Fragile eardrums

Meant to receive

New information into

Al Capone

Safe doors

Keeping the contents

Hermetically sealed

Stale

Full of debris

“We teach best, what we need to learn most ourselves.”

Richard Bach. “Illusions”
