“Voices” by Angela K. Mack © 1/6/09
I listen to VOICES for a living….
mainly, voices of inexperience
wanting to be heard yet lacking the depth
THAT COMES WITH LIVING.
I listen to VOICES for a living…..
needs that want to be met
that chase me down and sap me
IF I AM NOT TOO CAREFUL.
I listen to VOICES for a living…..
the arguing voice, the whining voice,
the voice of reason and seduction
AND I AM OVERWHELMED.
But occasionally, very rare, I get to SPEAK.
My passions and my soul are GIVEN CONSIDERATION.
My words are dissected and analyzed by CURIOUS MINDS.
And once a year, I get to sing and be heard.
I get to write and be understood.
It is a great thing when one is listened to.
It is a great thing when expression is found by acceptance.
It is a great thing when the suppressed emotions are released in resounding strengths.
This is why I listen to VOICES for a living.
“Do unto others as you want them to do for you……..”
