in the cocoon

withdrew into the comfort
the comfort of the cocoon
everywhere vibrations of violence
echoes of bragging about it

today the trauma still
wounds raw yet to heal
still under siege this nation
the numbing fear present

at times this poet withdraws into a cocoon.this is in keeping with time tested wisdom that :he who fights and runs away will live to fight another day.the withdrawal is akin to that of the tortoise.it is done out of the abundance of caution.that is how it is with this self styled poet-prophet-philosopher.
