Free

in #poem6 years ago

Free! Free!
I'm as free as can be,
Except for the cages
constraining me!

The laws of nature?
The First of five.
They are the laws
under which I thrive!

The laws of man?
It's number four.
The laws which steal
my rights, for sure!

The laws of the Gods,
whether real, or not,
I can't seem to rid
myself of the lot!

The rules of society,
into which I was born,
punishes attempts to
escape with scorn!

Then there's those limits,
the cage of my choosing.
I just can't seem to win,
for losing!

Free! Free!
I'm as free as can be,
within those cages
that are built around me!
