Poem: The Bricklayer

My latest original five-line poem. Also, for those who may be wondering, I intentionally do lowercase “i’s.” Those aren’t grammar mistakes

. The Bricklayer

my walls are waterfalls; my mind
gets mesmerized by their translucency,
thinking myself a hiker to an oasis
when instead i’ve been a protective
bricklayer falling further inward.
