The emancipated Prisoner

stripping off. lock, stock and barrel

he is still. not naked

miserably mystified

begging a question he has no answer

can't explain things he's indefinite

hope?

shoulder the brutal load

how to go on?

with something. he can't see

how to compete?

with someone. so explicit

hope. lets hope

shadows. on the wall

whispers. down your skull

empty.   yet echoing

dubious on the masquerade

mounding ever since...

hope. less hope

turned the page and closed the door

that she's gone and you've moved on

smile the pathetic

laugh the crime

so loud.    yet so barren

hopeless hope

probing light. prying voice

hidden snake. struggling out

invisble chains keep him in pain

visible candor keep him in vain

it's a fiery blue

the clad nudity
