Living In a Hostel
Battery hens
Caged in and made to try and fit in
Give us a break
Freedom is scarce
The world aghast
Nothing but routine, disordered order and disappointment
Imagine rain clouds moving past
Pretty for outsiders
But inside is dark, full of woe
Normal is not normal
Life, unimaginable by workaholics and city goers
Carry on with your day
Amidst the pain
Find joy
Amongst the sorrow and disorientation
Stay in tact
Let go, but moving on is unnecessary
