Shut up...silence

‘What we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence.’

(Wittgenstein, 1961: section 6.5)

But we can speak about the unheard, the inaudible, about the profusion of tumultuous screaming discomfort of being silenced by...us. Then, we are no longer walkers on a shade of liberty; we walk the chosen silence, thus enriching what is meant to be heard.
