Random Poem:

Stones and boulders wearing ties
jrnuzum

A great grey wall divides us
 1
Pushes us back and forth
 2
Confusing us more
 3
It wears a spotted tie
 4
It preaches indulgence
 5
But there is no such thing
 6
There is only a corner in a room
 7
 
 
Where all of us blend together
 8
Into an unnoticed riot far behind conciousness
 9
Why did we put the wall there?
 10
For guidance? Direction? out of fear?
 11
It has only brought mediocrity
 12
along with a vast cliche
 13
We feel trapped
 14
and yet that is what we are
 15
