I have nothing to say
No meaning to express with gusty words
Layered in a haze of wintry snow
A chalkboard waiting for someone to write on
Tense and full of imagery and art
I'm a canvas sitting by a painter’s easel
Frozen with excitement at the close distance
That I am to greatness
And the absolute torture of it all
Is that greatness is inside me
Yet there is no fountain
No spring to let loose this passion
That dwells within me
Racing through my body like cars on a highway
Dancing their exotic rhythm of life
Like bees on a lazy summer day
Going from flower to flower
Swarming in the air like balls of light
Waiting in silence
With nothing to say

People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid. --Soren Kierkegaard
