Are We Really Free?
From where I can see,
We are not very free.
Trapped on a treadmill,
Going thoughtlessly downhill,
Bound by silly convention,
Beyond our comprehension,
Controlled by technology,
Without any Theology,
Psychology or Ontology,
Steered by mass marketing,
Always you they are targeting,
Wanting security,
Without any insecurity,
Freedom to be,
Without responsibility.
Are we really free?
We are not very free,
From where I can see.
My premise is that we begin to lose our intellectual faculties required for survival when we were hunters and gatherers as soon as we settled for growing crops, herding domestic animals, and living in villages.
Very few of us could live on the edge that real freedom would require. Keep up the good work!
