The Great Thing About Being Human

Anne Siffler

Updated: Jan 1

The great thing 

about being human 

is that we can call upon

the spirits, beasts, the gods, legends

whenever the fuck we want. 


Day or night. 

Multiple times.


Interrupting the sleep,

Business,

whatever they do


with our

pleas-

gratitude-

and can’t sleep conversations. 


This, however,

doesn’t mean they have to 

respond. 


But it is a chronic din. 

It is a chronic situation.


Where we hope

for a turned ear

and they hope for the sound

to be turned down.
