"Though I am alone my soul is my own / And that is worth not less than everything / Single with ten fingers and not one ring / I feel so free now just to be alone"


Poem Artwork

Transcendental Sonnet #1322:

So Free Now

 

My transformed tattoo is all healed-up now

Emblem of my having survived somehow

The strangest experience of my days

I will remember this nightmare always

 

But I take a deep breath and feel stronger

Having decided I would no longer

Live a lie for liars ever again

Freed as by fire and purified by pain

From base alloy I am refined to gold

I am mine and cannot be bought nor sold

 

Though I am alone my soul is my own

And that is worth not less than everything

Single with ten fingers and not one ring

I feel so free now just to be alone

Well sometimes I can't wear my ring because hands swell from arthitis and cuts off circulation but I do wear it on a chain around the next. This is a sad write Steve.

I'm recently divorced. I keep looking at my hands with no ring.
I wonder when I'll get used to this.
Freedom is better than all the hell for sure.
I can relate.
