SILENCE THREAT

a sophisticated silence
scuttled away my peace
pierced my giant hope
I am now a living danger
planted in the sands of time

I sincerely hope...

that your life isn't in danger because of your political views. Nice work, it makes one reflect on our world and the dangers of speaking out in some countries. Stay safe. ~ Geez.
