The technology of silence

The rituals, etiquette

.

the blurring of terms

silence not absence

.

of words or music or even

raw sounds

.

Silence can be a plan

rigorously executed

.

the blueprint of a life

. It is a presence

it has a history a form

.

Do not confuse it

with any kind of absence

.

- Adrienne Rich
