Silence should not remain so
His mind a silent sentinel
Ever alert
Sifting the debris
Of forgotten duties
Its allegiance unquestioned
Yet cautious of the angst of authority.
It does not speak its mind
For it roams outside the gates
Touches the edges of thought
Without recoiling
A day may come
When the sentinel
Will no longer remain silent
Learning slowly
That thoughts
Generated in silence
Should not remain so
