Sitting in Solitude

A young man
Sits in silence.
He is alone.
Yet, all around him
A multitude rises.
Their voices,
So numerous,
So loud,
Have lost all meaning;
They are but sound.
And there he sits,
Perpetually waiting
For
The Answer.
In solitude he sits
Like an old dandelion,
Waiting for the wind
To blow him away.
He watches this
Flood
Of thoughts
Come,
Screeching pell-mell
Through the gates
Of conscience.
And piercing the silence outside his brain,
A single, lonely voice
Came
Screaming
