if you stay silent
you become invisible
like an old submarine movie
where the bad guys have to guess
where the good guys
are
and try to blow them
out of the water anyway with depth charges
silence isn't golden
and even if you keep your mouth shut
you can't guarantee
survival
or keeping all those precious things
you have clawed your way to collect
what they want what you have
by they you might mean
me
they will get it if you
don't fight to keep
it
and being quiet
going under the sonar or radar won't do
you intimidate me
because you are powerful on the surface
though as it turns out
your jelly underneath
vibrating to each
attack
so shaken you can't fight back
our stares might shoot through you
but only out of envy
this sense you have
what we may never get
you need to stay visible on the surface
where we all can see just how powerful you really are
