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.
