Silence is a Dagger

Silence is a dagger
An El Salvador machete 
Sliced air between two points
As final as a period
As finite as blood on sandpaper 
It falls heavy
Dropping hot lead into water
Throwing blisters
Heaving insults 
Trying to settle on love
Coming up empty with pride and empty intelligence
