The Muted Commoner You don't see them, ......Just past them...... Speak but unheard, perforce, thus, muted, against their will blogs bread unread uneaten, poem orphans better than us, vine ripened unto death Truly dare you say I/you the better? Shamed heat, you spit, outed, no penance offered, non granted, the forgivers are muted too **so this be your charge, so this be your salvation:** free the mutes from the trance - exhume, exhort find them in the back pages, then acknowledge  that we are all Muted Commoners. find the poem unread, revive it with a read, a heart, and then you can speak your Peace.
