11.19 White Noise

loud noise surrounds
an angry howl slowly melting into white noise where
words tumble back and forth
in and around
over and through every
one
but
never
at
me.
how are yous and
what are your plans?
my attempts to play
glazed over and then
finally it is over
my voice is never.
good byes all around
with a lingering...
and what are you going to do?
