Irma's research on Noam Chomsky:

firtst draft

Dear audiobook,

I know we've just met each other, but I can honestly say that you are the light of my life. It took me a while to really feel our connection, but now, I never want to go back. You help me to concentrate, you teach me new things and you never mind if I don't get it the first time, you'll just start over. We have moments together on the train where I forget everyone around us. You make me feel like an intellectual instead of a housewife while I'm cleaning the windows. You help me to ignore my boyfriend when he asks me 'Can I ask you something, do you know where the scissors are? Oh sorry... where you reading?..... Sorry... but do you know? Oh, here they are!' You make me feel healthy when we take long walks on the beach with my dog. And you whisper story's in my ear when I fall asleep, so sweet. You always have new story's to tell me, it's never boring. My wonderful new friend, let's stay together forever.

Lots of love, Irma

Voice over:

second draft

It's hard to comprehend, but you help me to ignore my boyfriend

It's hard to indicate, but you help me to concentrate.

You give my life meaning, feeling like an intellectual while cleaning

I drift away by the sound of your voice, when you drag me away from the noise

You make everything concrete, you make my life complete.

And when lonely nights are near, you whisper sweet words in my ear

My favourite method of choice, my whole soul rejoice.
