Escape


be the lock

on the door

that I may slip

through the window


be the gate

on the road

that I may drive

over the bank


be the secret

of the puzzle box

that I may 

decipher it 


be the rules

of the social construct

that I may break them

into fragments


be the fastening

of the manacles 

that I may 

free my arms


what I love 

is the problem 

to solve

what I love

is the trick 


the dove rising

from the cloth 

the girl 

cut in half

and made whole again
