OBEISANCE in SILENCE
Silence is the only duty
I must obey
Dumbed by the piercing stare
from the shadow - nowhere
Why must words be spared?
Where's the eloquence of merit?
Why the ashen embers
of the sun slumber
And bestrew silence in the glen
Will the rain quench them
as they lay in meadow green?
Traipsing on tumultuous lane;
Bespeaking of unspeakable scene,
Yet, silence is the only language heard
A duty of unfailing obeisance.
