Silence
is a poet without words
is choice, or circumstance
when things spin 180
a complete about-face
one day apart
Silence
is a phone that does not ring
a mailbox with no mail
doors that remain wooden
without the warmth of
a rapt, urgent knock
Silence is a doorstep
uncrossed
Silence
are words audible, yet cold
Silence is talk,
rambling, meaningless
Silence
is a lovely tune on the radio
sung and danced alone
