Sometimes the noise gets to be too much.
Poison Number 3

Mouths open wide
Like graves searching
For tenants. Darkness
Springs forth from
Darkness. Words
Empty but poisonous.
It is acceptable
To speak with intentions
Of efforts to change
What you complain
About, but empty
Words of complaint
Kill more than millions
And sicken. Why
Speak against
What you will
Not change? Silence
Is more effective
Quiet...
