[2020] This box of mine
is confining
What happens next?
Thinking outside of it
just leads to another box
I'll have to think outside of
Tell me when the boxing ends
Tell me I will eventually arrive
---find myself within in a box
having a floor, walls, and ceiling
that I can finally call,
Home
where I can parade
around the squared circle
in my silky shorts
with a glass of wine
retired from this bloodsport
---handful of remaining teeth
intact to enjoy the cheese
