They Unnoticed Live

They nod, rarely shout
Silence is preferred,
Noise produced only when necessary.
Blind by choice,
Deaf by accident.
Intelligent on special occasions,
Usually mundane and somewhat obtuse.
Their characteristics shine in dark.

They alone stand,
Gathering is necessary evil.
Goodness is their way.
Intoxicated in passion
Few live arid.

They sing when communicating
and whisper only in dreams.
You meet them everywhere,
Yet unnoticed they live.
