Beautiful like the forests of youthfulness
smeared with aged skins merged in unity.
Comfort from within the knowledge of a sheltered home
away from the world of stressful hair-pulling strains.

None but few confess to house-ridden lifes
where curtains become the night infront of light.
Tears compare to waterfalls of peace and calmness
falling into those open arms of acceptance

many feelings breath and free themselves from you
Escape the already rusted cages from within.
Change is forbidden to the "Many-aged"
over that age where "Middle-aged" finishes.

Living alone is nothing but a chore of breathing
death shall find you unworthy of even dying.
When all but loneliness is a form of death itself
as in heartbreak one must leave crying
which one you choice the person or the soul.

Left to rot amongst the many that have experinced the fall
"life is but a rontined left unfinished"
Never finished for man shall pick up the pieces.

A lot could be taken here. From a warning to vanity to agoraphobia and aging. Enjoyed (from a nearly housebound for two years)

Poets against the war is redundant
