ROMANCE Poem: “silence”, by Ryan Candito

plates smashing
windows breaking
sirens blaring
tires screeching

criss cross applesauce
one two three, eyes on me
be seen, not heard
raise your hand; get in line.

falling in with the nameless crowd
falling out with myself
how do you speak up
if you never knew you had a voice?
