“Deathly Silence”

 
“Deathly Silence”
 
cji
11/11/13
 
Deep beneath the ceiling
agonizing silence within
fearing any slight sound
hearing the props above
searching for the needle
then rapid loud the pings
soon the rains of death
charges exploding close
while in deathly silence
awaiting their presence
sailors in prayers quiet
hoping the external noise
soon to go away without
while barely breathing
close to the ocean floor!
