Your tongue
like the clapper of a wind-battered bell,
constantly clangs and clatters.
Why the ceaseless alarm?
Hush now and allow
the sufficiency of silence.

like the clapper of a wind-battered bell,
constantly clangs and clatters.
Why the ceaseless alarm?
Hush now and allow
the sufficiency of silence.
