THE WINDOW

THE WINDOW

A Poem by Betty Hermelee
"

Perception of the world outside

"
My life is a cramped, musty space
I only fantasize the outside world
my window is the fated release
I breathe a slice of life
as I peer, squint for hours
to a nonexistent entity
fantasy of contact
wishful friendship
the forest seen
is my only hope
I dwell upon this trance
the window is my promise
