Silence needs to be a relaxed space
Yet, I toss and turn in the gaps
filled with gravel, spears and spikes
Fear and Memory hold tight – Yikes
Words hang from walls like serpents in caves
they don’t need a tongue; they come in waves
Words need no Tongue
Creative Experiments and More 
Excellent, Reena. I love the opening two lines!!

If the words are serpents, are they lies you can combat with truth?

They are toxic that can hurt deep. Truth combat comes at a later stage.

Thank you so much! Incriminating language often feels as toxic as a serpent.
