If I could keep my mouth shut
If I could keep my mouth shut
Learn to zip my lip
and not trip
on words never spoken
a hush hush token
would fall at your feet
half formed and incomplete
An embryonic sentence
Semiotic repentence
A silent laugh
No teeth and smiles
You've travelled miles
through green and grey
to hear the words
I want to say
to make you pay
But with no wish to be derided
I've reluctantly decided
to play mute
RATINGS BREAKDOWN
