At the beginning...
Vocal 'Silence' Acrostic Challenge, No.1
Semesters begin with an ambulance at my head...
(I think that they will be busy next door)
Leaky faucet adds to the hum of appliances...
(Everyone knows it; no one says it)
Nights fly with my thoughts...
(Cicadas come for the mornings)
Everything else comes to the quiet.
