The Whisperers

 

Even when there are no ears,

whispers enter the heart and weaken the will.

seeds of doubt grow into fears

with phantom thoughts and voices mingling, until

no one is sure who he hears.

 

And the whisperers tell lies

so well, they're mistaken for beliefs. they fill

up the mind like gnats and flies,

distracting the conscience. there's no need to kill

the truth -- the deaf can't hear its cries.
