Listening to

“The sound of silence....
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobbled stone
I turned my collar to the cold and damp”

“In the naked light I saw
10,000 people maybe more
People talking without speaking.....
People hearing without listening .....

No one dared
Disturb the sound
Of silence...

Hear my words that I might teach you ...

But my words like silent raindrops fell

Echoed ..

The sound of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made ..”
