The Enormous Silence
The Enormous Silence
And now the enormous silence
Dark clouds, dark day, dark eyes
Stare back from my watery mirror.
The silent treatment.
Bitter medicine
heals neither of us.
No malice of forethought.
No premeditation.
Only the criminal called best intent.
Walks quietly on the road to hell
That is this enormous silence.
