Grasses bend their heads

Under scorching summer sun

These days are the days

In these cool waters

Relinquished, revitalised

Still stand sure stand still

Under lock and key

Trapped inside, betraying mind

Leave it all behind

A crack in the earth

An empty void of escape

Swallow me whole up

On familiar paths

Can I get out of these ruts?

Is there room to grow?

Just do a little

Practice every single day

The destination

Sun settled silence

All around things are growing

Glowing in the sun

Hedged in on all sides

I stay within the compound

Hatching escape plans

A voice in the dark

Should I listen or reject?

Are you on my side?
