Within these walls (Day 1164)

how much more we’re forced 

to see what we prefer to hide

when ill-humored time

twisting back upon itself 

wrests the day from our hands   

and sleep is hours away   

and waking just a handful more     

we pace  unable to forget 

these truths we hoped not to recall

finding ourselves   without respite 

face to face   within these walls
