have you ever
talked to
a wall?
When you
talk to a wall
You get relief,
unafraid
You can vent out
your corked up
thoughts, feels
it just stands
impassive
indifferent
but listen...
after all
listening
is what you
need
a punch box
to pummel on...
If walls had
ears
and tongue
how many
stories
would they tell....
other than
walling in
and walling out
how much
they serve,
these walls...!
have you ever
talked to a wall...?
