come inside
away from the torture
that you hear in the hallways

this is my corner
where i can move freely
'cept for the straight jacket
that holds my arms close

shut the door
and bolt it shut
dont want me
to get out

i rock back and forth
you come closer
but slowly
not wanting to scare me

i laugh
my eye twitchs madly
dare you come any closer?

I liked this. Good write. And honestly, Garfield is my favorite comic strip, it's always funny. Jim Davis is great. --Mothy

Huh. Sounds fun.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
