Public Prison



Circled by strangers,
Caged in
Within the Public Prison

We are the crime
To the eyes of the masses
I am the unjust

Is their truly safety in the many
Protection from yourself,
An absence of derision

The "bad influence",
"Immoral"
I am not the one drenched in shame

The crowd has forced me to the edge
The last step my next,
Escape won't be denied,

The mass revealed the path
Gave the blade
This prison is the answer...

i like this - perhaps one way of looking at the world yes is as a prison, the escape from the bars of the sky lie in other worlds.
