the wall


The wall erected
Just so the man can hide
Away from the preying eyes
Away from the hard questions

The wall guarded
Just so nobody can throw stones
Just so nobody can paint it bad
Just so the man can sleep easily

The wall with CCTV
Just so the busybodies can say
Let the people swallowing the lies
Just so the man doesn't have to reply

The wall with barb wires
Just so nobody can sneak in
Just so no alarm bells ring in the court yard
But God isn't amused by it all

The wall of sins
Just so nobody forgets
Sins have to be paid
Better do it now then tomorrow
