    Poem Commentary

    The Wall
    A wall
    Sometimes when I listen to sounds that go on by
    The roughness of engines in the sky and on the ground
    People's voices hum and birds just fly on by
    Beeps of alarms and trucks reversing all around
    People's televisions blaring show after show
    Whilst no body can be seen they can't be found
    Locked doors and open windows
    Curtains closed but wind keeps singing
    Pushing and pushing open up this blows
    The gushing of whistling has both ears ringing
    Closed minds rocking in darkness so it goes
    Will to love and live and light and growing
    An ocean a river a wall, a wall, all it knows
    A wall
    Sometimes when I listen to sounds that go on by
    The roughness of engines in the sky and on the ground
    People's voices hum and birds just fly on by
    Beeps of alarms and trucks reversing all around
    People's televisions blaring show after show
    Whilst no body can be seen they can't be found
    Locked doors and open windows
    Curtains closed but wind keeps singing
    Pushing and pushing open up this blows
    The gushing of whistling has both ears ringing
    Closed minds rocking in darkness so it goes
    Will to love and live and light and growing
    An ocean a river a wall, a wall, all it knows
