Extraordinary Sunshine Weaver

Thank you, Michelle Ayon Navajas, for publishing my sonnet today on Hotel Masticadores House!

As you may know, tinnitus is ringing in the ears. The screeching sounds are all around me every minute of the day and night, and when I’m trying to sleep, the volume and pitch rise as though some unseen force is turning a volume button. I had a moment or two of silence while doing Hatha yoga once, but I haven’t been able to replicate that tiny miracle. I’ve had this condition for years and don’t know the cause. I know many others suffer this ongoing clamor, so I’m including a link about it in case you suffer and need answers.
