The Deafening Silence Poem by Kim Hutson

The Deafening Silence



Shhh...
Quiet as dreams
Loud as Nightmares
Ahhh...
Silent as sin
Power like gluttony
Shhh...
Tickling brutality
Bludgeoning trickle
Ahhh...
Inhale, exhale
Natural as beauty
Shhh...
Natural as violence
Exhale, inhale
Ahhh...
Echoes of memories
foretell the future
Shhh...
Held up to ears
wash away in the water
Ahhh...
Waves upon waves
wave farewell in the water
Shhh...
Shhh...
