you know what
my walls are awesome
art deco
& mosaic
i should not just try
to knock them down
they protect
the garden of me
my life story
written
on those walls
my life’s work
written
into the stone
& sand
of them
my inner warrior
stands
at the garden gate
& my attempts
to break the walls down
casues her
to become
even more feral
& foreboding
but respect those walls
you & me
& that warrior
might just
grant you access
might just
show you her smile.
so trying to break down walls was a bit of the wrong direction. my walls are there for a reason. i might need to meditate on opening doors rather than tearing down an essential part of me.
