Quiet Solicits Persistently
Silence solicits me once more,
for safety’s sake, which I deplore.
I treat these moments preciously
with sanctimonious jealousy;
guarding proclivity's tendencies
in silent moments of privacy.
Seclusion gestures,
begs my retention,
then demands unselfish attention;
incessant exclusion from confusion
and silent moments without intrusion.
Why must I resist persistently
returning oft habitually
with hopes of saving my sanity
in silent moments sans vanity.
