Nikos Politis

Silence stomps

across the room

going out of his way

to loudly kick a chair

away from the table

stands at the window

and loudly runs his hands

down the blinds with

a startling clatter

that's obnoxiously

deafening

I put my earbuds

in my ears and Silence

sneaks off as I

crank up Nikos

and try to

sing along

in Greek.

    I like silence. Loud and sharp noises grate on my nerves. Music soothes some and me too. I know people who need noise (TV or music) on all the time. I can sit and think or look out the window in silence. Good job, Colleen.

  • WOW. He needs to let go of his ego and chill. Love her spirit. RULE THE WORLD OF CREATIVITY. HUGS

    Why is he so aggressive? That was scary. Loved your poem!
