till, at some stage
i can lift up my eyes
and feel warmth from the sky

just take me out
and be comforted
by my hope and not my doubt
learn my dreams
like your wallpaper
of stolen childhood scenes

i do not think people –
should see themselves as fragile
or,
in a box –
marked, ”handle with care”
nor should people see themselves as one half
with one half going spare

is your kindness equal
or is it tied to values
that are only ever personal
should kindness be just given
just based on a personal belief
or how a person is driven

infantilising themselves,
as a twenty something
or a thirty something child
some people, well it is not quite the joke
not quite the luxury chocolate
not quite the full ticket or the full fat hope

and what should we do
with all these ill-educated fools
someone broke their building blocks
by using the wrong tools

discrimination does not exist
there is an educated right hook
that has clearly missed
