                          The Sun Beyond 

                          by Marjac
                          

                          A wall looms ahead, 

                          Still, cold as the dead; 

                          The weeds reach up
                           With hope, in worship
                          But their savior is naught
                          But a foe. False. An idol, handwrought.
                          The wall blocks their true salvation; 

                          The sun, their mother sighs with vexation 

                          But the weeds are blind, 

                          They remain twined 

                          Around the bricks like lovers,
                          Consigning themselves to their captors. 

                          They fade away and die,
                          still believing in the lie 

                          That beyond there is no sky
                           And that beyond, 

                          No weeds flourish 

                          That none thrive, none multiply. 

                          There, walled, they die, 

                          Limp with malnourish.
