Hilltop Prison
I sit on the hilltop
The sun is beginning to rise just above the earth
The prefect breeze blows upon my face
The grass is still wet from the morning dew
As I look our from the hilltop, I see:
Vast forests and a gorgeous sunrise meets my sight
The world below in perfect clarity, perfect light.
The sharpest edges of nature are shown
The wild is a dangerous wonder, not to be cloned
The world looks as if it is spread out before me.
When i come out of my daze
I crave to leave this hilltop
...to go out and experience nature for myself
Yet I can not leave
Not yet anyway
I am trapped on this hilltop.
Like a dolphin in a tank.
I will never leave
And I know...
that the wild will be gone when and if i do come out of my prison.
My Hilltop Prison
