On the Outside Looking In
On the outside looking In
that is where we seem to be
most of us..most of the time..
and in some moments
feel a pull
and approach the inside..
but a fear overtakes
and we wing away..
we retreat to our
place in the matrix
upheld by beliefs
and the appearances
so convincing in our
life on the outside..
if questioning does
not insist..we make
the outside as comfortable
as possible..and live
our lives..soothing as
we are able the outside
desperation..
on a more hopeful note:
we might take a
longer look at an
inside invitation..and
recognize home...
