An Acrostic Poem

Simple index finger pressed against protruding lips

Inside this blackened cavity, your noise can be felt

Like limbs moving slowly under water with no destination

Ears selectively changing there station, a world with no accompanying music

Nothing in comparison is as beautiful and terrifying, as the quiet that acquaints us

Count the seconds in each lull

Exhale the breath held waiting for the silence to be over
