[hometext] => I wrote this poem to show how entrapment can have good aspects for certain people. The voice here is of someone who doesn’t like to go outside and enjoys feeling like their house is trapping them as a form of protection.
[bodytext] => I rise to tend the house another day Not leaving my sanctum to face outside Remaining in my room keeps me content Without the torture of social affairs Tiresome small talk at parties that drag on Strangers that will glare, then whisper and judge So I choose to see humans on the box To mute them when I please or turn them off No soul can cause me harm as I’m closed in Embracing walls that cherish and protect Outside space is not my chance of freedom Keep me in my shrine so that I can tend Lock all the doors and keep me hostage here! Block out the din and paint the windows black! I care not if I have no human touch How I adore the house that captures me!

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. ©
