Sound-full Mind


Sounded by the power of the mind,

     it has a lot to say.

Written down in words assigned,

     the voice should now portray.

No... it doesn't come out right,

     the sound is not the same.

Stay cluttered in that mind thought,

     speak it silently... causing such shame.

<p>Shame is deaf -mute ...and also shy...with a permanent hollow sound ... listen to it.</p>
