A gilded cage
With lantern light
Shining within
From without
A flickering flame
Slave to the elements
Vibrant, alive
Rising in sudden
Ecstasy.
Gone.
A wisp of smoke.
The cage door
Lies open,
In essence
Egress is
Evident.
Terrifying,
The torrid
World without
The solitude of sameness.
Close the door,
Lest the outside
Get in.
