Their Voice


Sometimes I wonder why people speak nonsense so much.

Not even nonsense, but words that give no good to the world.

People who boast about themselves, put others down, or complain and whine.

And that's all they do.

I wonder, do they like the sound of their own voice that much?

Is the droning so pleasing to them?

But then I realize

It's not that they like the sound...

But that they can't hear it.
