“[The Game of Silence]

So many learned the rules
of the game
and chose silence.
So many remained silent,
believing
their silence would save them.
So many were undone
by that silence,
struck down
before they could utter
even a single cry of protest,
before they could tell the world
that the cost of silence
was far higher
than the cost of resistance.
