Static

At first, there's only static
The spit and crackle
With shh and speckle
White noise.

Underneath
If you listen long
Strain your ears
And manage not to go mad

Do you hear it?
please
Tell me
You hear it?

Beneath all static, there are words
foreign, distant
Deliberate
Words

Calling

Do not fall in to the noise
Do not listen too closely
Lest you too
Become
Static
