Outdated structures


Perhaps it’s time to take a look 
At those old structures in our lives; 
Defenses of the heart, outdated assumptions 
 That no longer serve their purpose, 
But serve simply as a roost 
 For fleeting thoughts and expectations 
 Of rejection, whether ours or others; 
No longer launching sites, 
Propelling us to new adventures, 
 But now specious barricades 
Against a world that has moved on…
