Everything contains some silence


by another someone
"Silence means a great deal to me, and I've learned to distinguish a great number of forms of silence. My poems talk about a palpable silence, that creamy, latexy kind of silence that we know, even when we're experiencing it as a giant luxury, like a dream luxury. There is an angry silence, which is a very different and unpleasant form of silence." by Kay Ryan, Poet

Have you heard the new Dixie Chicks song about "the silence you give to me?" It is beautiful.
