Revival of the Monsoon's Rains

Perspective is often distorted over time and many an important cause or passionate belief is lost to poor hindsight memories. I know this - because I do this, altho' i wish i didnt.

Hush........

there is this emptiness now you see

its like a rock divide - just there
we both look at it and make no comment
about the horrific noise it steadfast bears

ignore it?

why yes let us never utter or name it

but leave it to the wind and weather
for surely it will soon be out of sight
filled over by the passing moments

look away?

yes, yes - may we two never chance
to glance upon its very existence
and soon it will be covered with distain
to drown the murderous persistence of it

 let it go?

we two should cocoon ourselves tight

to block out the memory of what was
each to feast upon the vacuum's fill
until it chokes, distorts and colours our view

 then there will be none.........
