Hour Fourteen: Barriers

No worries about

The wall with the window

To nowhere

Too smooth to climb

Too wide to get over

Too boring for temptation

Who is it keeping out?

Who is it keeping in?

 

The highway barrier

A slab of unmovable concrete

Tough enough

To protect and restrain

A piece of peace

To rest upon

 

The hoodie to hide behind

For keeping secrets

For keeping myself unknown

To burrow under for respite

To frighten unfriendlies

Who get too close for comfort
