I Live In A Hole Poem by Carolyn Michael

I live in a hole
I like it
It likes me too
The walls are hard here
Smooth
I can run my fingers over them
In one fluid motion
It’s dark in here
Unless I need some light
To read or something
I like to read in the hole
It’s quiet
But not so quiet that
You can hear your ears ringing

No one knows about the hole
It’s in a spot that
No one has ever been to
And where no one will ever be
It’s best that way
People won’t get mad at me
Or bothered
By the things I do
The things I say
They can live their lives
In peace
I hope that one day
Someone will mention my name
But it floats by
Not seen
Not heard because
I live in a hole
