Trapped in my Head
Artist on artist crime
Creatives serving time
Day to day grime
The only place to climb
Is inside this heart of mine
What a time to be alive
Streets empty ‘cept the skater boys
Newfound hobbies create new noise
New creations cue new toys
Brand new skills, whole crew poised
Boredom creeps behind our joy
Threatens to deploy
Sets in to annoy
Enough with the Zooms
Get out of my room
Don’t assume I’m free
of gloom
Running on fumes
Closing in to consume
Thoughts of doom
The smile is a costume
For whom
It may concern;
For those who may presume
Please,
will something
bloom?
Give us some good news.
