1/21/08 writing assignment. Create a poem most related to the struggle you are going through in your life. I must explain that I wrote this for my husband, but I seem to see the Ostrich in me after reading it, as well.
The Ostrich Theory
I am just an Ostrich.
Hanging out in a place I call my home.
I find myself always looking for sand.
The problem is, there is no sand here.
So I bang my head against the sense that others try to make me see.
I smash myself up against reality hoping to bust it up, so it will go away.
I find myself always looking for sand.
The problem is, there is no sand here.
Can't anyone see I need sand?
You can't expect an Ostrich to function without sand.
I find myself always looking for sand.
The prolem is, there is no sand here.
Do you think maybe something is wrong with me? That could never be.
I am an Ostrich, to survive I must make myself blind to what I chose not to see.
