-The Irony in Long Poems About Silence-
I am rushed
Around and Around
In circles.
Back and forth
From here to there
Everyday
Again and Again
I used to think about THIS everyday
The silence I was forced into,
The oppression I faced
All that
But now, I don't
Not so much
It's become so intertwined
With my day to day activities
That I've stopped noticing how much they hurt
They effect how I live my life
How I go about in the world
What I say
Who I say things to
So this day brought me back
From pushing these things into
The monotony of life
So I'll sit in silence today
To stand up for what was once the center of my life-
One of the most uncommon things about me-
And has now faded into the commonness that is my life
