   Sound

The soothing and relaxing sound
Of 12 to 3
I hear nothing
But the breathing of little angels

Sleeping and snoring away
They are all at rest
Sitting in my chair
I myself am at peace

Watching and listening
To the sound of nothing
Hoping and wishing
This time will not end

Yawning and whispering
They’re finally awake
Their innocence is lost—and
All hell has broken loose
