Silence
Silence speaks
It’s heard and it’s loud
Not saying a word
Says, I will allow
Silence wobbles
Unsteady it stands
Like a good ostrich
That blends with the sands
Silence is safety
With no point of view
Silence don’t matter
Until it is you
Silence is sneaky
It hides, it evades
It ducks and it weaves
Avoiding THEIR say
Silence is dull
No shine and no glow
Whoever said golden
Knows nothing at all
Silence risks nothing
No skin in the game
Don’t open the door
Just lean on the gate
Silence knows nothing
Don’t ask them the score
Three sleeping monkeys
Know nothing no more
Silence is guilty
Without a defense
The guilt will distill
In all their silence
