Attuned To Verbal Abuse Poem by Suki Nakamura

Attuned To Verbal Abuse

Rating: 5.0


attuned to your verbal abuse
look at you, haven't you noticed?

you have become an empty gong
always screaming

and yet no one listens
for we who have been attuned to

your noise simply dismisses
your useless existence

There is an American expression (anyway I believe it originated here; perhaps in some joke) that goes, 'just consider the source' by which a thing is immediately excused to the unthinking area of awareness, because it is beneath notice, being such an obvious testament to where it originated from.
