The Silence of Still (Written from a Vision sent by God) can you hear the whispers through the air the conjugating of birds shh...hear them go quiet the low howls of hounds the uneasy purr of cats the cattle all laid down even the horses lie on their bellies their necks stretched out their eyes focused no wheres the waves that raged now are calm, smooth except for the slow bumping against lifelessness against broken shores where once stood beautiful structures glazing in the morning sun now lay invisible images lost in the silence of still shh...can you hear the whispers the crying of the trees their battle long gone watching the water come and go its dark, mucky vortex surrounding the hollowness of the silence their departed leaves withering in mixed congregation shh...shh...can you hear the whispers tiny ants coming out to feast hungry flies gathering around surveying the air lurking in the stillness ready in their devour of what's left of the silence shh...shh...there it is far, far but so very close from low, deep in throat a piercing wail like never heard an unmatched sound human...animal? how can one tell it's engulfed in the stillness like a look looking but not seeing it's bathed in rage a blanketed depth so darkened and mellowed that it stills the stillness shh...shh awaken to the whisper the sound of inconceivable as the ants begin their march as the flies settle their position as the leaves give into their stench as the trees weaken their hold– their roots release the Earth as they fall to the ground lose themselves to the wet cape below the silence stares listening to the anguish wail coming from deep, deep as the sea returns to the sun wrapping its arms around the silence begging for beauty to be seen as she rocks back and forth begging the trees begging the cows, the horses all those in the wild 'stand up, stand up' but shh...shh there's just the whispers low, low...the stillness as its look keeps looking but can't anymore see
