Array ( [sid] => 93876 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => GLASS BOX [time] => 2005-05-10 01:43:26 [hometext] => It would be so nice. I love the lights of the city. But I don't want to be buried within them somewhere in the middle, I want a view of it, I want to see it from above. [bodytext] => I wish I could live
In a glass box
Far up high
In the sky
Above the city streets

I would sleep
During the day
And I would
Look down at night
No longer confined
By the limits of my horizontal vision
Now with a perspective
Of the things around me

I would see all the lights
The skyscrapers reaching out
The glimmering commotion of life
The world beneath me
Inspiration finally illuminating my mind

I wish I could live
In a glass box
Far up high
In the sky
Above the city streets

I would sleep
During the day
And I would
Look down at night
No longer surrounded
By the barricades
That hinder my horizontal vision

I would sleep
During the day
And I would
Look down at night
No longer confined
By the limits of my horizontal vision
Now with a perspective
Of the things around me [comments] => 6 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 19 [informant] => Onslaught [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

GLASS BOX

I wish I could live
In a glass box
Far up high
In the sky
Above the city streets

I would sleep
During the day
And I would
Look down at night
No longer confined
By the limits of my horizontal vision
Now with a perspective
Of the things around me

I would see all the lights
The skyscrapers reaching out
The glimmering commotion of life
The world beneath me
Inspiration finally illuminating my mind

I wish I could live
In a glass box
Far up high
In the sky
Above the city streets

I would sleep
During the day
And I would
Look down at night
No longer surrounded
By the barricades
That hinder my horizontal vision

I would sleep
During the day
And I would
Look down at night
No longer confined
By the limits of my horizontal vision
Now with a perspective
Of the things around me

Good poem. A glass box has one problem every one can look in at you.
