Haven of rest
A quiet tranquil recess
Balmy cove

To break out of confinement

Often explains the level of its contents.
Freedom is being satisfied
With the terms of one’s confinement....

Sunday Afternoons
In dusty Karoo towns
Sunday afternoons are 
sentences of solitary confinement

Deserted streets
closed doors and windows
No sign of life

One wonders if the rapture
has taken place...

Confinement in

Work..is found

In a dream of

Doing..

Waiting for the

Finishing bell..

But really it is

Waiting for the

End of waiting

Which ended

Already......

Ah Peace,
You disheveled outcast
Hiding in the heart
Of wingless doves
Shivering in cage-less
Confinement 
Clinging to a charred
Sunrise
Smoldering
In the madness
Of god-less
Gods

prisoner of time

Trophies a burden,
 polished and shined

Greed but a jailer,
freedom denied

Hope in confinement
—wishing a crime
