Seek the silent spaces to soothe your soul,
so says the sapient sage of centuries,
serene and safely seated in security,
swift to speak upon your singular search.
And silence sure would soothe uncertainty,
if such were simple to secure your succour
and soundless were the systems of existence,
surging streams and shouts, internal process.
