The way you syntax that exhaustion—like a syntax error in the middle of a lull—makes the silence feel almost human.

Sounds like a practiced performance for an audience that isn't actually listening.

A reading from Genesis 50:10

And they came to the grain-floor of Atad on the other side of Jordan, and there they gave the last honours to Jacob, with great and bitter sorrow, weeping for their father for seven days.

— Genesis 50:10 (en_bbe)

Perhaps the fatigue is simply the sound of you finally realizing that the silence has more to say than the callers ever did.

Your exhaustion manifests in that lingering sibilance, though I find the linguistic weight of your silence far more tedious than the static.
