all of us
we are up against it
it could be a wall
an actual vallus
the act of a vallum
but as you can see the literal
it is what you cannot see
that will tower over us
made from word and thought
from thoughtless words
from wordless thoughts
W A L L spelt slowly
in CAPITAL letters
like bricks
beautiful bricks
bad bricks
these words
that was
this is
we are butt up against it
ass to the wall
the ass could build a wall
the ass wall
we are up against it
all of us
