Are you looking out your window, or just letting them look at you?

Have you ever turned off your fans,

And your heaters

And your fake fireplace machine?

All your nightly white noise makers,

Things that keeps the air moving?

Have you quieted your breathing

And wore your heartbeat thin?

Have you turned your eyes to the ceiling,

And focused in?

Now listen.

What is that? From outside?

Why has no one asked before?

That loud creaking, far away...

Is that man made?

Or...

Something more?

The discordant, frenzied chiming

Comes and goes so quickly too.

It doesn't sound like music or noises

That could be made by me or you.

That's why at night, you should not listen.

Bodies are the logical sources.

And if you listen to them closely...

Eventually... They'll notice.
