Out of the eye socket <br />of a sheep’s skeleton <br /> <br />an invisible cricket <br />sang & sang <br /> <br />as if its life <br />depended on it <br /> <br />and when I took <br />a step towards it <br /> <br />a twig <br />snapped <br /> <br />and the silence <br />was as loud <br /> <br />as an explosion <br />only without the noise!<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-explosion-of-silence/
