blue and black

never any fairness
in some game
getting played
using bigger blocks
up higher
the walls made
it impossible
to get through
and a barrier formed
around the spot
a comfort that
warmed
now the spot
cold cement
becomes the seat
breathing slowed
feeling the heart beat
face down
for the moment
near water
covered with sand
reach up finally
still hard to stand
stayed too long
got caught in the web
of blue and back
very little strength
for an attack
