Why is it so quiet?

This image shows an art piece made on a page of T.S. Eliot's poetry. The majority of the page has been covered by black marker and yellow-and-black packing tape. Some of the text has been left uncovered, revealing a new poetic message.

WHY IS IT SO QUIET?

Why is it so quiet?
Do you feel
a communication,

You a r e
afraid to
b e ready

see at last that

A curse
a child
both incredible

Without intention
formed
In a moment of unconsciousness.
