Quietness


Inside this new love, die.

Your way begins on the other side.

Become the sky

Take and axe to the prison wall.

Escape.

Walk out like someone suddenly born into color.

Do it now.

You're covered with a thick cloud.

Slide out the side. Die,

and be quiet. Quietness is the surets sign

that you've died.

Your old life was a frantic running

from silence.


The speechless full moon

comes out now.
