My apologies for posting infrequently! I've been out of town and have also been preparing for school to start - which means working more. This poem is a thought that I've had for a while. "Selah" basically means "think about it". It is a Hebrew word so I took some freedom with the usage as far as making it a noun. As always, feedback is appreciated.
We sat in silence with selahs
clamping shut our rigid mouths.
You thought about my rage
while I raged about your thoughts
concerning my character. Until hastily,
you took hold of a microphone
and delivered messages that grew
like hatred inside of me until
my clarity amped them out with
disgust.
