A prison for me 
without the bars.

Every poem he wrote
on every page of his book
in the fifth line of the third stanza
a mistake
a spelling mistake

She was rough, gravelly, sharp, brash, unwelcoming, unfriendly.
The fence she had built around herself was unbreakable, stiff, metallic,
Wire screened with burlap.
