Onomatopoeia

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 ?
