The Cruel and Horrible Sea

Outside the walls

The cruel and horrible sea rages on

But inside these walls

I am a rock

I’m in my cabin in the woods

My desert island

My mothers house

When I leave these walls

I put on my suit of armor

And zero fucks are given

A cacophony of poor behavior

Permeates everything

And I am blessed to have this space

When for so long

I was adrift

Stuck below the surface

And knee deep in the screaming of the hordes

But through it all I forge on

As I wait for my soul to bloom

In the clear light of day

When I walk with pride

And the whole world is not just

My cabin or my cloud

But my playground
