14 August 2012

Sitting here, in my padded cell Walls as grey as an elephant's skin I ponder on my loneliness And weep at all the mess I'm in

They put me in a strait-jacket Tied me up and stripped me bare Probed my mind with angry words Flailed my dreams without a care

They locked me up, for years and more Cut off from the outside world A thread of wool unravelling Formerly knitted and purled

And so I sit and weep and sleep Night and day meld into one Alone in my grey padded cell Jailed for evil not yet done.
