"Fenced
In"
With only a wall between
Me and my neighboring resident
I encounter different views
Of volume of music that's evident
A free spirit am I
Never before contained
A bird on the winds of belief
Never before constrained
A bird in a cage
Is a sad creature indeed
Looking for skies
Which it knows fills the needs
I could never be comfortable
In a world such as this
A world of fenced-in freedom
Is a place with much to miss
