Sajdah Al-Riyami Poet Rhyme

Lab Rat

A Lab Rat
             Rapt in a Cage of Steel
Wandering whether the Cat
                Can otherwise feel



I feel Pain
              I feel It Scalding off the Sides
Converting Agony in rains
                  In which a hush of unheard cries



Trying durable
            To flee from a box
Of No Return, & Fresh Starts
                   But… 
                                                                             	Clogged by the locks




Maybe: the Mouse
                     Can unchain the door
Or dwell out,
                   Doodles on the floor:











“Na-na, nana, Na
You’re Always ever so Grey
I’m munching A Bananna
Watch you Melt Away”



& The Mice
              Dash to Where they Secrete
Now, They ponder twice
               Of a Rat’s Might
