Poetry Monday: The Window of Dreams

do you see him there
the freak of nature
within his window
the world which he sees
its fabricated
his own fantasy
that draws them nearer
to spectate and gawk
cursed is his window
he may never leave|
and none may enter
imprisoned within
his reality
imprisoned inside
the world that he weaved
his one wish and dream
is to share his world
if only to one
solitary soul
but his dream must fade
for no hope has he
the window won’t break
but broken is he

Flashback Friday Poetry: A Toy’s Lament

locked away in my Plastic Cage
until my release by Giants
as years go by others are Freed
and this begins to fuel my rage
i decide to be defiant
i learn to except my own greed

i force my way down the Shelf
to open the Cardboard Prison
all my efforts are in vain
i try to recover myself
then i am found by a person
it returns me to my great pain
