Off-White Walls

Virgin light polished wood,
time begun begins life's run
No place to be when it was could,
now unclean, lost in the sun

Walls of white might contain
new views, silence covers all
Time's soot pains, as life I feign,
virgin comes to battered stall

The hammer falls on raw wound,
acid spills with no concern
The filth inside that stays bound
soul wails, on heated spit it turns

The soul that's left is quite small
Restrained within self made off-white walls
