this is a moment of silence:
sirens in the distance that stop once they reach their destination
zenny's tail swiping the carpet floor, back and forth, as she watches birds on the porch
birds and squirrels on the porch chirping and moving and taunting Zenny on purpose
the deafening hum of life with electricity
a truck (probably), somewhere on the nearby highway or perhaps driving up the hill on the major road, you faintly hear the vrrrrrrrr as it pulls itself forward
a moment like this is quiet but there is no silence
