'Pablo, no Hablo'

Be quiet.
Very quiet.
So quiet that you mistake silence for peace,
That you misunderstand stillness for harmony,
Vacuum for wind,
Being for living,
And your own heartbeat for the clock that ticks - 
And loves to hear its own ticking,
For which you have been asked to
Be quiet.
Very quiet.

Although I respect the fact that without these marks my rank would've been 'not-so-good', yet I view it as a considerably minor issue when compared to the amount of fun I had while writing those 2 essays. (Or in fact most o...
