[hometext] => This is a spur on the moment poem, on a spur of the moment thought. Sometimes my best poetry comes out this way. The weird thing is I actually thought I liked peace and quiet--maybe not.
[bodytext] => The room is silent--dead silent; The void of noise beats loudly in my mind. Without sound all the other senses scream out in violence; The ghostly white walls make my eyes blind. The taste of silence makes me hunger for sound; The scent of lavender overcomes me in a subdued state. With the touch of my chest I must check to feel my heart pound; Noise sometimes bothers me, but its silence that frustrates. Quiet is a blanket of peace covering the soul of mishap; it is wished for by many but is glady given away. Noise has a way of breaking free of silence's trap; What would the world be like if quiet chose to stay?
