SILENCE SILENCE
After she went When the sympathetic departed He stood helpless, Embarrassed in grief, Clumsy inability Sprung upon him Reason told him, pain so bad must end
House hummed quietly, Fuelled with order, oiled with meaning Stationary, silent now Dissembled
Wounded in every room. Defenceless. Her glasses on the desk, eyeless Her straw hat in a shaft of sunlight Gripped his throat. Clumsy inability Sprung upon him Reason told him pain so bad, must end.
House hummed quietly, Fuelled with order, oiled with meaning Stationary, silent now Dissembled
But the walls and windows, furniture And doors, told him it never would. He was at once aware that He had known of this awfulness Waiting for him, all his life. Non-death, bleeding without dying Clumsy inability, Sprung upon him Reason told him pain so bad must end
House hummed quietly, Fuelled with order, oiled with meaning Stationary, silent now Dissembled House hummed quietly, Fuelled with order, oiled with meaning Stationary, silent now Dissembled
Facing the worst enemy – Silence.
