I'm trying to write some thoughts on the history of silence, maybe the
taxonomy of silence, figuring out what kinds of quiet there are now, and
how they may have changed over time. With quite the sense of timing, I've
picked a morning when my neighbors' hirelings are out with their chain saws
again.
Perhaps of related interest:

Signora granda, testa che massa
massa ne passa, che quasi schissa,
Dia dei sostegni de cese e palassi
Dia de le taje che su ne tien fissi
Dia de le onde che le ne fa grassi,
ne ingrassa de ogni grassia, Dia Venessia -
aàh Venessia aàh Venàssia aàh Venùsia
