Why Comment? Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Why Comment?



why lie why bear false witness
why say anything at all why
you do not like the question why reply?

is it not better to keep your mouth shut
to keep your mouth shut be thought a fool
is better than opening it removing all doubt?

I feel no compulsion to lie to make reply
I refuse to bear false witness to make reply
a gentleman need not make reply stand tall!
