Delicate Cage

Delicate Cage

Life as I know it

Has definition around the edges

Yet freedom keeps me sane enough

To know definition is no barrier the brave

I cannot deny the part of me I cannot hide

Yet living in this delicate cage remains

The kindest gift life has endowed

It is a bittersweet surrender

Accepting reality

And making the

Most of time

And proximity

  1. On the photograph : There is a delicate bloom hidden inside the thorn cage. And your poem likens your body to the cage you are accepting. There is mystery here to me ; if anyone is open and makes themselves visable, I think it must be you.
