A fortress is like a place to hide from the outside world. It protects. It hides. It locks us in, so nobody sees us. But what is it the person is really hiding from? Have you ever really talked to that person or do you always ignore what you don’t know or understand?
a he-man fortress
raised high and mighty
sitting on top of the hills
surrounded by a few delicate trees
but mostly by a strong willed forest
thumping is heard
at the three foot thick wooden door
guardsmen open it
wearing their steel vests proudly
strangers plow their way in
as if they’re being hunted
to be captured by evil doers
and the thick doors slam shut
locking everyone inside
to protect us all
