James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Free verse

Close Minded

I close my eyes, I see
I close my mouth, I speak
I'm closed minded

I close my hand, now a fist
I close my lips hum hear the lisp
My ears are clogged
Now I hear
Punish me, bandage me, surround me
I'm closed minded

I close my legs, I'm pregnant
I close my throat, and I talk
I'm closed minded

I close my veins my heart beats
I close my lungs so I can breathe
So misguided 
I'm closed minded
So watch what words you speak out
The words you speak create
So open up your closed minds

I close my legs, I'm pregnant
I close my throat, and I talk
I'm closed minded
