So quiet
Still
Too numb
Wait, think on, concentrate
The gum
Where the needle penetrated
A noise
An irritation
An awkward timed vibration
Still so
Quite peaceful
Only an overheard conversation
Only
Propellers in flight
The pain of past pleasure
Streams, rivers, rivulets
Churches, with corner stone creations
Still
So quiet
Lumber all the way up the hillside
Water
Racing all the way down the cut
Nowhere in a memory
Where anyone near has ever been still
