It Hurts!
I came across this poem on the net, and I found the imagery for it to be very strong. Wild animal caged or goddess feeling the shackles of mankind?
Anyways hope you guys like.....
IT HURTS
Locked up-Fading away
Cut off-Trapped inside
Alone-Wild thing lost
It hurts.
Net wrapped-The hunters came
Black haired dark eyed-Mirrors
Boxed up-Keys thrown away
It hurts…
Shackled-Chained up against the wall
Caged in-Screams echoing
Under the pressure-heartbeats strong
“It hurts”
Deep down-smothered
Senseless pain-Its been to long
Can’t feel it anymore-too dark too small
It hurts?
Tied down-Strings attached
Broken puppet-Let me out!
Snarling screaming-Pacing behind the bars
I hurt!
SHEEPLE
plural:sheepling
A person regarded as timid, weak, or submissive and easily swayed or led. Usually have the overall intelligence and wit of the ruminant but are disguised in a human or humanlike form

Re: It Hurts!
You're talking about my cubicles at work again, aren't you???
You're right though; good imagery.
Do not meddle in the affairs
of cats, for they are subtle
and will piss on your computer.
Nor meddle in the affairs of
dragons, for you are crunchy
and taste good with ketchup.
