Lock-Up

It’s a good place
to dream,

lock-up.
On the outside,

you spend time
or you pass

time, and
it’s gone,

like 3
children.

But, here
you can

actually do
time, which

is a different thing
altogether.

In another month,
you’ll have to tell

the same story
twice, but

for now, your stories
can change,

even your
birthplace

can drift
from town

to town.
Your marriages
