I feel
like a horse
at the horseshow

Like a dog
trained for tricks

This world is a box
with no windows,
no doors

I'm looking a way
i'm trying to escape

but as i get older
the more boundaries
there seem to be

but with age comes
wisdom
i'm OK in the box

While others
feel happy

I can pretend
i feel free

I like this a lot, Greta. If I didn't think I know better, I'd think you were much older than you are. Your poem really speaks to many people's feelings on living in this world, societies, and all other restrictive, organizational factors. So true.

I like this one too, Greta

Nice poem, Greta. Is this an allusion to Pandora's Box?
Georges

georges, i wasn't thinking about Pandora and her box at all but it's a great idea
