walking into a cube

by Charlie Morgan

after he had journeyed, he was tired.
found himself a mountain; fenced it.
posted: busy learning to love myself.

as the sign weathered, he too, became
a fallen forest; replete with the riches
of seeing a material world differently.

petrified, he paced his lonely hill;
wonders why someone didn't see his ploy?
(his sign only said he was trying.)

maybe, he murmurs between wrinkles;
they can't read, can't see me, maybe.
i'll give them time to focus.

i may open this fence and walk down
to them. it's a lil' scary:
leaving my own cube, after all,
i've never been out of it before.
and, if i want, can i get back in?

I'd say you already know where you're going, but I like that you don't know how you'll get there. Heh. Good stuff, sir.
