Lock Up Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

Lock Up



you had it locked up
the penny locket that cried
in a silver box

in the language of birds
till no one heard
and no one heard

again.
is it a sin cried the heart
lonely for clouds

for one scrap of sky
not made of tin.
this was denied.

but the heart sang on...
