This is a response to "Trapped" that was written in 1999 for an English class, 5 minutes before the class began. the teacher asked how i came up with it so fast. i told her it was i left in a room with out a window to see out, and a door she patrolled. needless to say, i was the only to this day to describe that room as if it were a cage. most others compare it to things they know already. i depicted my self as a bird, trying desperately to get out to fly around outside. watching life fly by me and i had no immediate control of myself.

i have since learned to control that door that opens.
