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
