When was the last time ?
Your phones stopped buzzing
Cars stopped honking
People whispering, chattering, bickering
Negotiating! Arguing!
When was the last time?
The dogs in your streets stopped howling.
Your surroundings were less chaotic than your thoughts
When if not during the day, at least the dead of the night brought some silence.
Competition- not just in marks, jobs, income,queues,signals
But a growing rivalry between the noise outside and the noise within.
How you wish the deafening nature could live upto it's promises
An in between state of consciousness leaving us inebriated
In a concoction of sounds
Medley of confusion producing the perfectly pure white noise
Spotless
That's caught you and me in a spot
And there's no going back is it ?

Seems to have clicked a perfect snapshot of your present state of mind. Good job Monica, very true.
