Post subject:  Obsession

This mind is a gaol
And you, it’s only inmate.
You stay up past the gaoler’s bedtime
And rise before his last dream
Is in the can.
You are active the long day through
Keeping the gaoler from
More important work.
Never hiding in web-filled corners
But ever restless, demanding his attention.
He sits to eat, you beat the bars.
He checks the halls still hearing your calls.
You know how to drag him back
To you - incessantly you batter
At the walls until he aches
To see another face.

He would let you out
But it seems you have
A life sentence.
Maybe his only hope,
Of reprieve will come
Upon the sentencing of
A noisier felon.
