Staged Or Stagnant
Staged or Stagnant
The gathering of people,
from here and there,
and everywhere,
made possible
by time.
What is important to each person,
yet more important to another,
then the one that is waiting
to hear?
Silence is not possible,
the sound of breathing alone...
a storm of air and wind.
Whispers turned to screaming,
left in echoes for the past to reflect.
The question of why,
never considered.
No one brave enough
to ask.
What was let loose?
How did it happen?
Who gave them permission
to put us all at risk?
Stand your ground when the dogs come,
they will be hungry.
Hold tight to your morals,
and do not give in...
to temptation.
