"are you through?"

if so no one told me

so i'll go to work to day

   "oh

you mean I talk a lot"

so I would have said

and lectured upon

the sounds of silence

but I've of been heard

in my word

a demand for

              quiet

                        words wont do

for your relative time

       I deduced that to

 

What it is

   without your saying a word

     and now you ask if I am through

       when I spoke in the dark to you

and all the while

 no light was cast for my guidance 

    in my communicating witness with you

Dont you agree 

or do you wish make your words

louder

than the absent silence you request

with still nothing to say my way

as if I only blocking your view

in some other dialogue for some other two

 

  There is no light need make a sound in the dark

be treated like light instead of  sound blocks its' view

if such a light shone no where

  but thru

            past

                  as if

                      present quiet is

                            through
