too much

"full of sound and fury signifying nothing"
- Shaka Spear ray



there was no need to prove
that
you've read a book
or two

no need to
talk about
every television show
you've seen.

there was no
need to
talk about a city
you no longer live in

I mean
you just came off
trying too hard, know it all jerk,

it was only funny at first.

only for awhile...

could the
silence be that
bad?

what scares you about that
silence?

who are you in the silence?

there was no need to pretend
not to be scared-

there was no need,
but "I" did it anyways...
