Hair crinkling in my ears,
Clothes rustling when I move,
Floor squeaks with every step.
Heightened reality from drugs?
Refrigerator door creaking open,
Microwave barking that it’s ready,
Furniture squeaking when I sit and
My computer clickety-clacking while I type.
Poltergeists?
No. . .hearing aids. . . .
Able to understand a cell phone call
without putting it on speaker.
Able to understand Libby telling me about her friend
without having to read her lips.
Able to understand British mysteries
without having closed captions.
New super powers!
