What Life is

What Life is

A Poem by christopher fox
"

I wrote this last year on the back of a test in my world drama class after I had finished. September 12th 2014

"
Sitting alone
Playing in the 
dark
worried about ideas 
I never wanted
 to start
I bounce a ball
but it doesnt
bounce back
lost in a fog
of my own traps
leaning on something
I've yet to see
I feel it with
my hands
just not enough to
believe
answering questions 
with my hand raised
no one asked 
anything
I'm not even on stage
I hear an applause
I'm patting my 
own back
just hoping the 
ball reverses its 
track
makes the circle 
I feel life is.
sitting alone...
what life is.
