You want
space?
what space?
the place where you think you'll be free?
exclusively yours and
no space for me?
what kind of place do you think that space would be?

A lonely habitat that's what I see
a place full of ghosts just aching to be
in a space with you
not me,
I want no space
no room to maneuver
no bed to make
no carpet to hoover
just me in a crowd with nowhere to go unless
my neighbour goes with me
unless all of you see me
and I'm not alone,
in your space you may roam
in my crowd,it's
not allowed
but of the two,space or no space
I put an X in the box.
