4:09 a.m.

when I wake
in the middle of the night
as I often do,
should I listen with headphones
to radio reports on the BBC
or listen instead to the silence
and think my own thoughts?

I vote for listening to the silence and thinking your own thoughts, but that's what I would do.

Annie, this is nearly a trick question.

Haven't we had enough time in our head, spinning our wheels without outside interruption?

When I listen to the BBC at that hour there are always reports from Africa and countries I never think about. It's a reminder of how big the world is.

What I really do, what I really do - is a little of this and a little of that.
