But that consciousness, that all there is to hear is yourself, is sort of wonderfully shocking. I used to go out into the desert (Anza Borrego), far off the roads, and at noon, when all the animals are sleeping and there's no wind, the silence is as absolute as I've ever experienced. And it acquires, like, size, it becomes a presence, it's huge. and in it there's your heart, and a little sussurus of blood, and breathing.
