Written by J H Martin @ A Coat for a Monkey
Wooden bench
White tiles
A desk
A uniform
I lean forward
I rock back
With the weight of memory
I don’t think I want to
Get out of this place
The bright light
The heavy silence
The shake of the head
It is all too familiar
I have to teach myself
How to live again
From Yankin
To Botataung
These walls of time
They imprison the present
Their questions
Cuff and choke
Looking up
I have no comment for them
This door
Has always been open
I am free to go
