Don’t Trap Me
By Lisa Kilhefner

Response

You want to lure me in?
I’ll need directions.
You want to chain me up?
Well, I’ve got questions.
You’ll pull me in and force me out.
I’ll fall asleep, I’ll toss about.
This trap will only hold me ’til I’m weak
enough to lose my will.
This tension is the fragile kind. You speak,
but, quiet now, be still.
