Watchman on the Wall
By s.k.

Visions flash in isolation and communion
Try to avoid the trappings of society.
Why might you think I’d like to run away?

You know you want to join in.
Bubble on the outside
Slides closer and makes itself a part
Of the whole.

Outer walls cling to themselves
Wanting to keep union to the source
But something’s pushing for more

Could it be
The dreamer is on the inside,
Seeing lightshows on the mind
In the midst of darkness?

Pressure’s mounting
All the time
To put away the foolishness
Become productive
Do your duty

Take no shame for clinging to life.
