ALL WITHOUT SAYING A WORD

BY LE'VAR HOWARD

I will tell them, 
I survived the hell
of man’s design. A prison for the mind.
I will tell them that most of my
story was told without ever saying a
word.
The stress under my eyes, the wrinkle
in my smile, the tension in my gaze
and the white in my beard.

My carelessness and quick irritation.

I will tell them I played, I will tell
them that I worked, I will tell them
I’ve grown and we have grown apart. | LH
