Consuming Silence
forget your question mark,
you have said enough already.
smoking in between complex gestures.
forget your gestures.
i feel better about things that way.
silent that is....
there is no absurdity in silence no
over indulgence or half filled jagged innuendo's.
i dont think i like the word innuendo,
it makes me think of phychiatrist in turtlenecks.
i need to forget about phyciatrist in turtlenecks
sitting with thier legs crossed like double
edged question marks.
i think there are cheap prints of claude
monet on the wall.
i need to forget about the cheap claude monet
prints and rooms filled with innuendo's.
perhaps i could swallow them like when i was
a child playing with my chef boyardee soup the
letters floating around in swirls.
lucky for me i have a word like silence that is
canabilistic silence consumes innuendo's
and turtlenecked phychiatrist.
silence consumes everything if you are patient enough.
