Silence - VII
(The Arrogance of Legacy)
(The Arrogance of Legacy)
Before his coming
was his voice. And in
his coming the Gods sought
to silence voice - but Silence
could not
be silenced - and his voice
was.
In being
he is Silence
and his scream
deafens the heavens.
In his going
those who sought
to silence Silence
would try once more
to silence Silence -
and will fail; in dying
the silence of Silence
will speak volumes -
Silence -
unsilenced -
for an eternity.
