Languishing
Forlorn
In the
Wilderness
Imprisoned
By
Impenetrable walls
Of
Betrayal
Abandonment
Contempt
Terror
Denial
Held fast
By
An alibi
Of
An outward
Orchestration
Judgment
Conviction
Sentence
Pronounced
No
Provision
For
Appeal
Dare
Thee
Then
Consider
The time
Remaining?
Minutes
Hours
Days
Weeks
Months
Years?
When
Might
You
See fit
To
Offer
The embrace
Of
Hearth & home
To
All
Of You?
Not
Just
Your
Sunday best
Swing open
The doors
Unclasp
The shutters
Proclaim
Amnesty
Homecoming
Reunification
Deliver
A
Shoutout
To
The hinterland
and
Abyss
Renounce
The
Exile
Quench
The longing
For
The
Irreplaceable
Embrace
For
Your
Entirety
Entirely
R. O'Neill (September 24, 2020)
