i was born in the darkness, and there i was raised  
—the world is only as small as your cage—  
a sapling rooted under cover of brush  
is doomed at birth to turn to dust  
but bless those hands that peel away  
what otherwise tangles and decays  
the gentle slope of a sunlit beam  
is enough to unfurl dormant dreams.
