No Escape


These days

I am cooped up

Like an egg-laying hen…

 

Expected to produce.

To work, to bring joy

To others while

I they bring none back to me.

 

The little joy

I have

Is controlled…

Only a little at a time.

 

God forbid I’d be happy…

God forbid I’d have any

Freaking joy in my life.

 

Why do I let them

Do this to me?

For one reason

& one reason only:

 

I

Can’t

Get

Out!!!
