Poem: From Isolation
" From Isolation "
I live up here in isolation
My little room of desolation
For twenty three hours and forty minutes a day
There's no one to talk to and nothing to say
It gets lonely here might as well be on the moon
This COVID shit's crazy they gotta fix this thing soon
All alone in here day after day, week after week
Time goes by faster when I sleep sleep sleep
But sleep's hard to find in this place of despair
When insensitive cops clang here and bang there
Jangling keys and bright lights to the face
Someone please help get me outta this place
Alas the doors stay closed though I cry and I weep
Even though I didn't sow this row I have to reap
Someday though after years and years have gone by
Ill burst from these shadows and show all I can fly
