Solitary Confinement

Is this the way things are going to be? A cold pane of glass, a handprint, and a reflection?

The rain falls: a celebration for some, a tragedy for others, but, apathy and loneliness. I

forget to breath sometimes, my meals are unappetizing. This is not a needle that points to

direct to the right path, because it points to me, accusingly, high up, and darkly robed.

The upward lines on my face cannot be rewritten; a tumultuous hurricane cycling inside is
abated by the shine of my eyes, and the imagined look of the one that will carry

all that I have- does not exist outside of this body.


I welcome the one that can –peace be still- call off the war, end the suffering, tame the beast…

sleep peacefully at last.
