Poem Artwork

this
society
will not
repress me
anymore
for I am a
revolutionary
who has
cut loose the ties
that bound me
tight


unrestrained
unfettered
unbound by
manmade
rules
I live in
spirit
immutable
above the fray
beyond the limitations
others would place on me

not for me
chameleon
contrivances
and
pitiful
pretentious
posturing –
no
set me free 

to fly
in higher circles
to swim
in deeper waters
to reach
greater heights
in a wider world
to live
authentically
in grace

bowing no more
to false prophets
and wolves
in sheep’s clothing
surrendering
day by day
to the
One True God
who came
to set us
free.
