Concrete.

I get that feeling
that concrete provides
sometimes:
cold
indifferent
hard
immovable.
I get the feeling
that the world is concrete
and maybe I'd rather hide
in a narrow crawlspace
than pound up against that
cold
indifferent
hard
immovable
stone wall.

  3. I know the feeling. The spareness of your words with the actual physical verticality of the piece work very well. Good work!
