Soundless Epiphanies

11/10/12

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A sound of silence veers its head Staring blankly into obscure delight A recognizable face appears in the light Inward laughter—fed Never heard it this loud before Something shifts on volume low The majority has become the foe Even words—they ignore No one needs to understand For all is heard within All they need is that grin All else—reprimand
