Silence

Cuts with more precision

than the most accomplished

executioner’s guillotine

Amputates what is left

of tenuous associations

 

Silence

Radiates with more antagonism

than the most blood-thirsty

dictator’s decree

Annihilates what is left

of incommensurable lives

 

Silence

Consumes with more indifference

than the most proficient

predator’s lair

Immolates what is left

of disintegrating liaisons

 

Passively aggressive

Aggressively passive

Punishingly indifferent

 

Silence

reverberates

through

an

empty

heart
