Quatrain of No One Listens

No One Listens - not when the
truth is spoken

When you speak, no one
listens, there is an
implicit silence
foreboding,

The more time you wish
for attention, the
more time keeps
eroding.

The easiest way to gather
a crowd is to tell tall
tales to their
face,

People listen when you have
nothing to say, or lies to
espouse or truth to
displace.
