    Stonewall

    I’m in Stonewall
    My refuge, my quiet
    There’s no changing my mind
    I refuse to cooperate

    I run and hide inside
    Leave and flee with all my might
    Four walls enclosed, no source of light
    Letting darkness hide what’s before my sight

    No sound, no noise, no voice to pierce my ears
    No visual reflection of what causes tears

    No fingers, no hand, no fist bringing scars or contusions
    No fresh vivid thoughts striking mental confusion

    No obstacles to pass, no hurdles to jump
    Questions to answer, people to answer
    No clocks to watch, people to watch, time to keep
    Don’t have to stay up, I can go to sleep

    Veiled from all others, places and things
    Concealed in the safety of Stonewalls being

    Perceived reality or reality itself
    For reality itself is perceived to be true…
    Not true, but Truth in the unseen reality

    Memory is a collection of images, some vague, others branded infinitively on the brain
    But in effort to prevent from going insane I go to…
    Stonewall

    That's my favorite stanza too!!!! LOL Like minds think alike!

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
