WALLS
Walls
Surround
Embrace
Shelter
Accept.
Life-containing
Warm wombs. Cocoons.
What cements these walls?
Bricks of family and love. Security, trust.
Room to grow and breathe.
Walls
Imprison
Divide
Contain
Isolate
Life-denying.
Cold tombs. Marooned.
What cements these walls?
Bricks of suspicion and fear.
Attitudes. Convincements of hatred.
What are we building?
