Conspiratorial silence
hangs heavy in the air
as sounds of guilt
reverberate through every mind
stopping their next thought
or next step
awaiting instructions from the Master
who has sounded them off
of repercussions
if they dared to
listen to sounds
of their conscience.
Inspired by dverse

The sounds of conscience can definitely be overwhelming..! Great write.

Guilt can silence people and make them question their conscience. Nice poem, Reena.

Heavy, intense reality that, for me, brings to mind the victims of cult thinking. So glad you joined in, Reena.
