I like this. It's short and simple. I like the breaks. The structure of the poem is unique. The biggest suggestion I would give is to keep "STOP" as just "stop." I think the poem has more effect with it in lowercase. Often, we have impulsions to all-caps something to give it emphasis, but this emphasis actually steals power from the word. If you've heard the expression that silence is worse than words, it's true. Other than this minor suggestion, I love the poem. Keep them coming.
