| 21 | The radio is screaming the man \ | ||
| 22 | on the radio will not be quiet he is \ | ||
| 23 | pushed far into the background \ | ||
| 24 | while some NPR talkers murmur over \ | ||
| 25 | his screaming he lost something \ | ||
| 26 | very important. He says it over \ | ||
| 27 | and over but they do not listen \ | ||
| 28 | they think of their children at home \ | ||
| 29 | lying in bed dreaming sweet \ | ||
| 30 | childhood one of them is staying over \ | ||
| 31 | at a friend’s house they are staying \ | ||
| 32 | up late they never want it to be over \ | ||
| 33 | not like the man. His life on the radio \ | ||
| 34 | will be the only one he ever has \ | ||
| 35 | his life it is wasted he’s being spoken over \ | ||
| 36 | such pain is in his voice. I wish you \ | ||
| 37 | could hear it. It’s something never over. \ | ||
| 38 | Suffering everywhere always and over it \ | ||
| 39 | the same serene murmur of the comfortable \ | ||
| 40 | distracted or worse looking over \ | ||
| 41 | the shoulder and quietly looking away. | ||
