"Now we will count to twelve
and let's keep quiet.
For once on earth
let's not talk in any language;
let's stop for a second,
all of us at the same time
in need of rest.
If we weren't so single-minded
about keeping our lives moving
and could maybe do nothing for once,
a huge silence might interrupt this sadness
of never understanding ourselves,
of threatening ourselves with death;
and perhaps the earth could teach us ... "
from 'Keeping Still', by Pablo Neruda
