Ode to Silence

through the myriad of voices

Suffocating like the sea, yet peaceful in its finality.

Insanity freeing, irony speaking,

Laments from the mourning.

Enticing with nothing, with everything,

Nobody hears the tree fall in the woods.

Cataclysmic, calming,

Enticing from the constant chatter of the world.

Acrostic
