a crescendo of silence had proven to be absurd

11 of 12 given words:
bare blood gravity crescendo rattle 
honey shatter birds blue electrify teeth

having bared his soul where blood had shivered
gravity of the situation could easily be discerned
a crescendo of silence had proven to be absurd
just not to be rattled by honey-coated reasons

myth was shattered in an eerie looking place
a distant boardwalk far off deep in the valley
spied by little birds then were blue in the face
hauntingly winding not anywhere that friendly

hibernating little creatures electrified with fright
teeth unmoving and barely a sound to be heard
what had become of a utopia sunny and bright
now ghostly and intimidating causing much hurt

  6. I love the title, Hank, and you've made a great job of using the words. I love the lines:
    'a crescendo of silence had proven to be absurd'
    and
    'what had become of a utopia sunny and bright
    now ghostly and intimidating causing much hurt'.
