Hermit

Today, I play the role of hermit

Locked away in my room

Whilst the cogs and gears of the great world-machine

Revolve around outside my chosen prison

Though some may frown upon such actions,

I ask you:

What is the crime in peace and solitude?

Is it not something we all seek?

So is it not an achievement

That I have found it, shut inside

These four walls today?

Even if just for an hour more,

It is my turn to play the role of hermit.
