  "I am captive
  In society
  
  Anchored in the open sea..."
  
  Love this. Great read. Very elegant use of your pen. How to many of us don't realize how society is a sort of prison.

  Bzzz, those moths eating your paper money too? All those £50 notes?! Wot, you got none? You're having me on?! heehee.
  Btu can they eat the plastic-type fivers and tenners now? Dunno. I've not left one out for a moth to try to eat!

    They never get the chance to eat any of my money. It gets spent too quickly.

  This was a captivating write. A pleasure to read with a hint of sadness. Society isn't free either. We each have our problems that cage us. Often it's my big mouth. I should put my foot in it. I really enjoyed your take on a disappointing world.
