A black hole of dense heaviosity, full of slow motion riffage, tectonic pummel and massive planet destroying rock.
When one calls a strike, who hears the call, who attunes and listens to it? How to listen to the call of a strike? What prevents one from hearing this call or stops one from listening to it?
