City bars,
The ones of steel on windows,
Inward holds,
Outward holds,
Protections from the shadows,
Holding bars.

City bars,
The ones of steady drinking,
Inward flows,
Outward flows,
Numbing minds from real thinking,
Holding bars.

Those within,
Fearing those without a friend.

Professor, what are you doing 'way back on page four?

Your work, each time, gives me pause within the statement made, and this is no exception. So many bars imprisoning us... Thank you for these moments of reflection.
