I am aware of how
My world is shrinking, how
The walls between which l
I run my daily course
Grow higher
Not because more bricks have mounted them, but
Because I have been sinking deeper into ruts
Carved by my staying on my single path, and
Strong as legs may be that drag me sullenly forward,
Plow tilling a sterile furrow,
I ain’t got shit for upper body strength

I’d love to put my poetry to work for you!
