There is a hornet in my bedroom and I don’t think of hurting it Instead, I notice its confusion and loneliness I want to help it but curiosity consumes me Covered in flowers, the hornet does not understand My bed is a painful heaven I look to the dead flowers on my shelf, wondering if new ones would please the hornet
Stuck at the window, wanting out, but kept in Stuck in this room with daunting choices Stuck between sight and mind The door is open, waiting for a reason to close The window is open, I am free.
