Remember My Place

remember my place
where I’ve been placed
its lack of, yet ever opening space
a space with barely any space
a space that is a place
an ever open place spaced for mistakes
mistakes that take place in this space
place mistakes in space with haste
and if the statements you make in this place
go beyond your limit of space
you will be confined to an even smaller place of space
until you’ve learned your place
but how much space can a place take,
if you take place in a closed space?
don’t speak, don’t do better, don’t be better Way
because those that run the place that govern your space
will always save face
but this is where courage takes place
and spirit takes space
so yea…department of corrections, I’ve been put in my place
you put me back in place
in my place
with black sheep,
for me to save more from the space that you take
from those you cant face, yet save face by the gates you create
which form a place that takes up space
and I get angry and shake
but my faith won’t break
until I shake this place
and take my place
socially distanced beyond your gates
so I can create a space
for black sheep that have learned and found their place
with whatever space they make
because the meek shall inherit the…
and We CAN’T SHAKE that FATE!
AHH!
