For Sigrit

Burst the bubble,

Step outside

Tear down the self-built, unsafe, foundationless walls,

Even a goldfish knows it cannot hide

With wide-open sparkling eyes

Step outside,

See the wider horizons and bluer skies,

Are you looking from out or inside?

The goldfish bowl?

The flimsy bubble?

The prison walls?

Make them rubble.

This is not your place at all.

One thought on “For Sigrit

  1. Favorite bit — which, I think, could stand alone:

    Even a goldfish knows it cannot hide

    With wide-open sparkling eyes

    Step outside,

    See the wider horizons and bluer skies,

    Are you looking from out or inside?
