Cocoon
- (When I'm sad) I want to sew myself inside a cocoon
- Away from people,
- Stitch by stitch,
- Carefully shutting myself in,
- The cocoon will be made of fur on the inside,
- So I stay warm,
- And hemp on the outside: a ripstop.
- Inside I will make myself a little hole
- So I can peek out sometimes
- To watch the world,
- Make sure it’s still there
- But mostly I’ll just sleep,
- Safe and quiet.
