(April 28,1992 / Philippines)

What do you think this poem is about?

Silence

Perhaps, the best defense
Is to keep shut, shunned, marred
In the darkest corner
I beg to differ

Silence is weak
Silence is ambivalent
Silence is uncertainty
Silence is empty

Silence is drenched with filth
Silence is swarmed with bane thoughts
Silence is soused in stale wine
Silence is noxious

Silence is obnoxious
Silence is torturous
Silence is pretentious
Silence - hearts sleeping, having nightmares amongst the shelves.
