What I Hear When There is Nothing to Hear

Sleepless, small hours, anxiety.

I entreat cotton, hair and teeth,

Let their sounds placate my agony.

Eager earworms hatch internally.

No respite, nor moment's peace, from the

Constant, interminable, high-pitched

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Written for the Moment of Silence challenge – but missed the deadline! Must be the lack of sleep...

Got a short attention span? So do I!

That's why I write short stories with big impact.

My longer stories are available as eBooks – including darkly hilarious horror story HEAD CASE and outrageous feminist splatterpunk METAGOTH. Out now on GODLESS and Kindle.
