things I have been thinking about

Boxes

Sometimes I feel like I'm in a box.
It's an invisible box surrounding my head.
It's square.
I can nudge my face up to one of the sides,
but I can't push through it.
It's elastic.
It's also very frustrating.
I can touch it with both hands,
even turn it and swivel it around,
but I can't remove it.
My neck is through it,
so that doesn't seem to make any sense.
I know it's there,
I can focus on the outline.
