fenced in ~

I’ve let the extent of my existence
its path along the street
called expectation
become so rooted in everyday life
that when I cast my eyes
upon the row of potted plants
at the lawn’s edge …   I feel
sort of fenced in   ~
without purpose …..

….. compelled I am
to rebelliously jump over
these self-induced
mental barriers
and run uninhibited …..   until I find
my hopes and dreams once more
