Favorite Quote:
Do not look where you fell, but where you slipped. ~ African Proverb


I look deep

Into the eyes of a dog

A Soul with as much power

As much strength

As me

I see the Cage

And I see his eyes

Pained and troubled

By the Cage

There is a Cage surrounding

And a Cage inside

Inside the Soul

I know the Cage

I had the Cage

I escaped the Cage

I want to break the lock

On the Soul that mirrors mine

"I'll take him," I say

To the bewildered Employee
