I reckon the hinges came right off there Scott That's why there's that silence round at your House, also you probably don't know your own Strength, I think you'd best get down to the ACT And slam some doors, either by writing on them That slam stuff.. or just slam em off the hinges Like at your place, at least the wind could blow Through free there then '

Otay, I read 5-12. I'm not a tweetist. 5 sounded political so I thought it might have something to do with our commander-in-tweet :-( Realized the tweets are random and cover a long time span, so no danger of a connection with the prez. I'm learning! cheers 'n beers ~ john

I like these expressive two lines, Scott; in fact I wrote a similar poem last month, but slightly longer. Regards // paul

Excellent, Scott...it really is. Conjures up so many images; many a domestic arguments aftermath could be summed up by this: the slamming door followed by the frozen silence. Superbly penned! My very warmest regards, Scott - Cheers! :) john
