Where?

Where has all the silence gone?
Words fight through tired ears,
City-rumblings grind,
Ear-drums involuntarily vibrate.

Where has all the space gone?
People float past paranoid skin, bones,
Warm, squishy bodies dance,
A guy in a raincoat grazes an arm.

Where has all the truth gone?
Posters shout lies, half-truths
Once dismissed, now believed,
Lest we should have to think for ourselves.
