Two Short Poems

ODD RHYME SCHEME
No flight, only a secure nest.
No sight, only steadfast belief.
No joy, only the absence of grief.
No employ, only eternal rest.

*          *          *

CLOSED SYSTEM
In a box. In a room. In the grasp. No way out.
Nothing gained. Nothing lost. Nothing beyond. Twist and shout.
Out of time. Out of joint. Out of options. Death and doubt.
In a fix. In a fight. In the dark. No way out.
