Imagine a world where this is no time. Only sounds.

The shower of a pouring rain and the laughter of the lovers caught in it. The soft crunch and crackle of crisp leaves in Autumn. The sizzle of bacon, frying in a pan as a mother scrapes some jam across a piece of toast. The roar of the ocean waves, crashing against the shoreline. The ripping and tearing of wrapping paper on a child's birthday. The long low tone of a cellist tuning his instrument. Sighs. Shifting of a woman, unable to fall asleep. Sobs of a girl, rejected by her first love. The rumble of a train passing. The whirr and hum of a fan keeping a boy cool in the summer heat. The gulps of a man, drinking his problems away. The boom of thunder and the cracking of a tree falling. The murmurs and whispers of a rumor spreading. Creaking of a fence gate in front of a house where he had once lived. The beating of a man's heart, as the woman he loves listens to his kind words. The mew of kittens. The shattering of glass. Knocks on a door. The dripping of freshly drawn blood. The trembling breaths of a man just realizing what he has done. The scribble of a pen. Silence in his mind as everyone around him chatters meaninglessly. The throb of a headache. The chirp of a cricket on a warm night. The rustle of the grass as they lie down to look at the stars.

Mm... Yeah, not much to say...
