Silence

The opening word is silence.

Life begins with a gasp of awareness.
Eyes open and the process begins.
Growth is
established by the selling of pride
in order to survive.

Life survives like a discrepancy
between right and wrong.

Cries of the baby become the moaning
of the adult. Confusion is like
a wandering vine that grabs onto
the heart and squeezes.
It is the normal state of being.

Life begins with a whimper.
It is barely
heard above the whining of the voices.
Existence is a game that is played.
It is without purpose.

The closing word is silence.
