What do you listen to while you work?
Music is for dancing
Or chilling when with friends
I wouldn’t want it working
I listen to my head.
Not that I work much now
I’m thankfully retired
You’ll find me in the garden
Or doing household chores.
I’m happy in the garden
Fingers in the soil
No need of distraction
Pleasure in the toil.
Household chores are tedious
So I’ll listen then
But news and conversation
More my sort of thing.
If I’m on a long drive
I’ll listen to a book
More a fan of audible
Than mindless DJ talk.
Never wear my headphones
If I’m on a run
Monitor my pace and breath
And how I’m getting on.
I love the sound of silence
The thoughts inside my head
Music just gets in the way
I kind of lose the thread.
