Silence!

Silence is golden
hush being the buzzword
noise gets frozen.

Silence is deafening
martyr’s pyre, waiting to lit
last post sounding; goodbye

Silence is absolute
cat out of the bag
a minister’s heart sag.

Silence is corrupt
abetted by the hammer
justice denied to an innocent

Silence is routine
scams after scams
yet none looses sheen.
