Nowadays I have a very few friends
and few more people who are confident
when they tell me how and what to think,
based on what they tell themselves.
For any person prepared to live on less
that is plenty to be going on with.
Whilst those with plenty to say,
who enjoy playing status games,
can, and will, repeatedly fill the air
with their opinions, and never tire
of filling the silences around them
I would rather the silence I live with
fill me and make me more replete in myself.
I wait, but I don't know on who or what
I wait on, certainly not the end of the world,
but the beginning of self sustaining quietude.
