Poems
Aug 2020
She is climbing up the brick wall
At first it was completely smooth
Absolutely without a groove
No holes, or nicks, or even dents
With just unscalable segments
This wall was large, sturdy, and strong
Keeping out half of everyone
It had been aged by all of time
Soon, it’s about to break the rhyme
Holes have begun to take form
Not by ice, water, wind, or storm
But by the people left outside
That have been locked away to hide
The brick is now crumbling
And the concrete blocks are tumbling
Handholds continue to show
The holes will continue to grow
Openings are more clear
Even to those on the wall’s rear
Soon, she will start to climb
And end the wall’s horrible crime
So with superhero strength
Along with her ranks
She is climbing up the brick wall
That will bring it to downfall
As she ascends
She starts to see the concrete ends
That have kept her family out
To seek life’s other route
As she reaches the top
The wall’s other people stop
Offer out a hand
So that she can stand
However, lots are still not up
They need to be brought up
They do not have her strength
They can not scale the wall’s length
So the wall must come down
And so everyone from town
Begins to chip away
So the wall won’t stay
It’s a lot of work
That continues to irk
But there are only boulders left
A good kind of theft
Of course there are some I didn’t talk about
That want the wall to continue to sprout
But they lack the power
They had on their tower
And so, the end is close
But there’s more work for those
Who try to make it small
So that she can climb the wall
Focus on the syllables in each line and stanza.
