where i sat

i just walked out,
living all day, in my cage.
wondering on those steps
where all sit, none a sage.

the noises that pricked ,
the late soriee behind,
each with his boisterous smile
had turned me blind.

suffering at their hands,
being shown a wilful neglect.
passing around me, all,
none noticing where i sat.

only refuge was the breeze
singing and flying playfully around
it did shush in my ears
in sweet smell had me surround.

I lay,not much to share
but the heart full of rage,
wondering on those steps
where all sit, none a sage.
