Siege
Thinking about endless strife and the unsettled life we have been forced to live lately.
What siege of our minds is this?
Fear infused with every megabyte of information
transmitted over every device imaginable
because we need to be connected to the surreal of our lives
Barriers block our logic
Our emotions cordoned off from our hearts
with yellow ribbons directing us to
“Do Not Cross”
might as well be bloody red
confirming our reality
“We Cannot Live in Peace”
Cause craziness prevails
Our ability to understand restricted
Check points drain our energy
Lives changed forever
childhood lost.
