I built it Brick by brick Slathering mortar Rebar pierced Lines off center Foundation firm Concrete faults Cemented sadness Tall as it is wide I built it Contracted of stupidity Designed in self-absorption Blue prints of folded sorrow Erected by a fool No cranes needed Drawn in teardrops Fallen from your eyes Collected puddles of my deceit I built it…this wall That keeps you from me
