Hey, it's day

Thanks to school I have gotten a taste of the light. Here's what I have to say about my stay




A Cage Built of False Reason



I step up to the cage built of false reason.

The beast inside eyes me as I finger the latch

Slowly I unlock the cage and back away.

The beast steps out shaking his head from side to side

He stretches and steps forward

I step back

I fear this creature



The creature bares its teeth

They gleam in the night

Soon I’ve run out of room

I feel the edge of the cliff, a light breeze blows

I wonder if it would be simpler to jump

To join the rest down below



I look at the world

The animals there have it easy

They know not of the beast on the cliff

Ignorance is bliss



With a deep breath I step forward

I am ready to face the beast

Even in the darkness I can see it smile
