Ode to a Quiet (a very quiet) Room


You have seduced waywards into your trap,
like a spider catching flies in it’s web.
You did lie in wait for noises to wrap
us in chaos, to tempt us to your bed.
And there we have sat, in your cold silence,
staring into blank walls for secret codes
we know are buried there. We sad clients
of your endless service, suffering bold
voices that have told us to do things. Bad things!
Anythings that will break the monotony:
some shouts, some screams, annoying cell phone rings!
Break down the walls, fight off insanity!
            Brace yourself for this dread impending doom
            Of a quiet (a so very quiet) room.
