In the classroom,
silence is obedience
(although
in the classroom,
silence is
quite unusual)
To an outrageous proposal,
silence is sophisticated
corporate strategy.
In a world
of teeming millions,
Silence is pregnant.
Silence is living.
It can be hurt and even injured;
Silence can be angry, shocked,
apologetic, wary or passionate.
Silence is non-living.
It can be cold, it can be warm.
Silence is Golden!
Silence was in the beginning
and silence will be
The End.
