Silence
The last war was fought
after our collective minds
opened to silence.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ inspired from "The Last War" by Ana Menendez
and the following quote from her book:
"Men at war always talk about the noise, as if by reaffirming
the bank and flare of it, they might skirt the hole of
lasting silence."
