MY OWN SPACE, FINALLY!

Someday

I shall find my place

My space

My very own, finally!

It will have no windows

Doors

Or doorbell

Just wood on three sides

Wood above as well

Still

It shall be my place

My space, finally!

And the wood will have dirt

On three sides

Dirt above as well

Some six feet high

Maybe less

Still

It shall be my place

My space, finally!

My space

My very own, forever

Where I'll be left untouched

Unharmed

By bigotry

Ricocheting bullets

Or tanks and bulldozers

Rumbling overhead!
