Closes #76

What

Added an original poem titled The Weight of Silence as POEM.md in the project root.

Creative Decisions

  • Form: Free verse with 5 stanzas of 4 lines each
  • Tone: Quiet, observational, slightly melancholic
  • Theme: The emotional weight of ordinary domestic moments
  • Approach: Each stanza captures a different time of day (morning, afternoon, evening, night, almost) to build cumulative resonance

The poem avoids overt sentimentality in favor of precise, concrete details—a bitter cup of tea, a coworker clipping fingernails, testing avocados for readiness. The final stanza introduces the concept of threshold as a metaphor for emotional in-betweenness.

Checklist

  • Original poem
  • At least 3 stanzas (5 stanzas)
  • Submitted as POEM.md in project root
  • Creative decision explanation included
