Alone

A prison built
            by its inmates’
                        doubt and sadness
                        anger and fear
                        values and contradictions
                                    is illuminated by LEDs
                                    and the air hums
                                                with the orchestra of silence.

            One etches into his walls
                        of plaster and bone
                                    a song in a language he wrote
                                                alone.
