the paper, three
subscriptions
to magazines,
i turn
off the tv,
the radio, i stop
scrolling my phone.
i put my fingers in
my ears
and stop
listening.
i'm becoming the
Manchurian Candidate,
hypnotized.
i tell the neighbor
with flags
and signs in their yard,
to shut up,
then put a blindfold
around my eyes and buy
a white cane.
the silence truly
is blissful
in this golden age.
