Speak

I walk in the window Hold the wind in my hair Challenge every being That dares encroach a stair My silhouette-shadow Stalking behind the bricks Creeping confined coward Transfixed by a few tricks my ears break my nose rings my toes smell A chaos crammed mind refusing to dispel Watch the free bird sing Extinct enchanting purity Captured in a cage Elate for the security Harrowing relief From the order posed So no unsettlin’ grief For mute is what the world chose
