This is my prison.

These lines, the bars,

hold me within.

I see no more stars.


This is my sentence,

my last defense.

These lines confine me,

contain and refine me.


Scared, I have requested:

my thoughts arrested.

No more fear, pain.

In this cage I must remain.


Locked in this cage,

I am yet a freeman;

enslaved by this page,

instead of a demon.
