Every hole keeps its own secret


Every hole keeps its own secret. Silent it remains in its depths, Unwelcoming to the careless visitor, From sunrise until sunset. Its silence speaks without words; Its stillness carries wisdom. For from the depths the King shall come, And the pain you suffer May rise from the noise you make. When silence is broken And hidden things are revealed, Failure stands at the door.
