People in this poem are scared of their own breathing because this takes them back to the bare essentials of ’LIFE’‚ how vulnerable life is‚ how alone individuals really are. Silence is often scary and particularly in our world which with all the noise and haste involved in a technological age is quite a rare thing and not sufficiently explored or valued.They cannot‚ and do not want to hear the radio’s news again as it only announced bad news‚ and fearful news about violence and destructiveness.
