Gone on the Winds of Silence
Rather than explain my meaning- I think many will find their own.

                                                 I feel like a sailboat,
                                                 Its anchor torn away,
                                                 Set adrift on rough seas.

                                                 Silent winds of truth blow,
                                                 Billowing sails thud,
                                                 The waves pound the worn deck,

                                                 Loosening the secured,
                                                 And drunken sailors fall
                                                 Overboard — there, they drown.

                                                 The rails, in clutch, wobble.
                                                 The thrashing is too much—
                                                 Away from safe-harbor.

                                                 The winds blow with answers;
                                                 I ride on the silence,
                                                 Vanishing in my wake.
