Dreaming... | Hanna Zhang

LISTEN TO YOUR WORLD

Sarah Landry

The effervescent voices harmonize Together, they form an electric current, A steady grasp on the world, A conceptual understanding of the unknown

The brittle voices brawl They armor themselves, Resume a persistent stance, Raise their shields, And beckon for their enemy Through taunting coercion

But the ears reap power But the ears seek true passion But the ears hold influence

For it is the ears that listen To the harmony And make sense of it all And it is the ears that Soak in the arguments And soften the sharp edges Of conflict

Your ears first taught your mouth to speak, So listen before your words leak and learn from your ears attentively, For they will influence your perspective proportionately
