Trapped behind steel bars
Feeling like a caged animal
Gnawing ache to reach the door to see the stars
Realizing the metal is subliminal
Erecting walls that reach the skies
Clawing at the bricks
Can you listen to the shrieking cries
Worsening strains
Feel the throbbing of ones brains
Understanding words delivered
Neglecting sentences that have slivered
Glass shards
**** Streaming in through the sieves
Thick as thieves
