Vibratory powers of thought
Trapped like bees in a bonnet
Cries of pain stifled and caught
You run but can’t escape it
Dust-devils scattering thought
Caught between hawk and buzzard
Palpitating heart, muscles taut
Who fights, who flees the hazard
Self-imprisonment within thought
Lion is quiet as a mouse
Squeaks from a lion come to naught
Roar, king you reign this jailhouse
