  13. A Wall
  14.  
  15. I pound my fists against the white curtain
  16.  
  17. It is a cold brick wall, immense with
  18. unrecognizable graffiti, & hidden in
  19. the chinks are foreigner's wailings
  20.  
  21. Who now in death, in an over-painted
  22. small room, sleep the sleep of the damned.
  23.  
  24. And still there is that Wall.
