What is a brick?

Briana jaramillo 1991 (Rhode island)



Ask a brick and no response
When you think somethings
Their it’s not.

Quiet down
An all ready quiet mind.
On pills and yet it’s all
Clear.

People are useless
And important at
The same time.

Ever ask yourself why
A brick doesn’t give a
Response.

Because it doesn’t hear you
It doesn’t see you nor smell you.
It’s just another brick holding up
A house.

And all bricks must be the same to maintain
All the weight they carry.

So ask yourself what is a brick.
