Silence
The dark jungle sleeps along
with all its creatures
The silence is thick and lies
heavy on my chest
I shout out a few notes of a song
in an attempt to alleviate the pressure
The words echo
off distant hills
but the intractable silence creeps back in
and won't let me go
Oh well, I just read Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad this morning. I've read the book earlier as part of my first year english course but I don't think I remembered much about it. It's nice to be reading so much and changing authors from day to day so I don't get tired of reading the same style of writing. I found Heart of Darkness to be very similar to the Diablo 2 cinematics. It had the same feel of building darkness. The horror. The horror.
