Quatrain of Staunchly Silent

Staunchly Silent - it is your right

When given the right to stay
staunchly silent, take
up the offer
with great
speed,

It is easy to speak what is on
the mind because it is
often prominently
decreed.

Silence can shorten trouble,
it can avoid nasty thoughts
from being
employed,

The right to not speak what's
on the mind, is as godly as
right to speak words
deployed.
