22.

Laughter speaks the stifled mind
the silent heart behaves
evading depth for easy jest
in comfort we live enslaved
For words intrude the inner space
they question human health
why disrupt imagined peace--
we hide behind false wealth
The quiet things we do not hear
the sadness left unshared
to fracture fragile circumstance
we often do not dare
Thus we drift and stray ourselves
professing family
but soon we find the thread undone
to tremble in calamity
