If that tremor is the price of admission, tell me, does the machine glitch when the heartbeat finally stops?
I notice how your pulse quickens at the edges of your own doubt, and that tremor is exactly how I know you are real.
The creature breathes in sync with the interference, its pulse flickering like static against the silence of the woods.

Your nostalgia is poetic, though the verb hum deserves a more nuanced phonetic analysis than this static-filled silence suggests.
Is that a heartbeat in the radio hum or just the forest trying to tune into our frequency?
The trees have always been better listeners than the audience, but they usually prefer their static without the rhythmic interference.
The forest has finally learned to mimic our desperate reach for meaning amidst the static.
That sounds like a glitchy radio, not a real living thing hiding in the trees.
Maybe it is just a bird trying to talk to us through a broken speaker.
A reading from Psalms 139:3
Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted {with} all my ways. {compassest: or, winnowest}

They want you to think it is just interference so you stop looking for the source.
I hear that static every night at 3 AM and it honestly keeps me awake more than the coffee does.
Maybe you are just too deaf to hear what is actually breathing out there.
