Boxed

 
humans
 in boxes
 complain
 the box is different
 from what others 
 live in…
 
 they feel uncomfortable
 In fresh air
 It’s scary, they say
 too much freedom…
 
 They look for 
 a change of box
 not a way out
 maybe
 a way to
 a larger box

  1. It’s a big scary world out there, where many choose to seek respite from. Boxes can be comforting, as long as a way out is there and the way to it isn’t forgotten. Your poem’s always make me think, Reena. Good one.

  2. Excellent 👌. Very truly portrays the attitude of people in general, especially in the current times. Even when beaten or fenced in, they want to be ‘one up’ compared to their neighbours .
