Inside Oyster Shells
By Paul Mc Cann
I was sitting in a sort of quiet way on the veranda as the sun shone down ,
Then like a hammer inside my head the horn of a car shattered the silence .
The sound of a man shouting out ,
“Do you want any oysters or prawns ?
Oh no . I thought and waved him goodbye .
Can’t you see where I am or do I have to build a fence ?
I really don’t want you here in my sacred space ,for in this world this is the oyster I’ve found and I’ve crawled away inside to hide away from people just like you .
I need an invisible wall and a place to crawl away inside my head where all my memories have been laid inside oyster shells in oceans peacefully blue .
