the arduousness of this
other's take it personally
the face in the mirror
frightened by the wide open spaces
have abandoned
their selves to the smallness
of the gaol
cast off the other's
cares and worries
concerning my well being
as it applies to their well being
the weight and the burden
of their caring is, well,
a weight and a burden
and i shrug it off
