Liberty, Lost
A day like any other Brighter than the norm, if anything Enjoying it thoroughly, warm sun on my face Left the car home for just that reason, walking My life - a bit mundane by some standards, perhaps But satisfying and comfortable, with interludes of joy ... pleasure I suppose, in retrospect, that I had taken it for granted Depending on the expected and routine to frame daily habit Yes, I must admit that ... now I had taken it ALL horribly for granted Here in the "land of the free and the home of brave" The United States - last bastion of dreams unrealized For no sooner had I stepped onto the crosswalk at Mass Ave, when it ended My average life, I mean ... more accurately, my freedom Gone in an instant, when the world went to hell My beloved country - the most grand and democratic in man's history Had taken a dive into the yawning abyss, and liberty with it, overnight A military coup, sparked initially by the crisis at the border Had taken place in the wee hours, and sans any sort of warning ... To anyone, and all those who were of professional, medical or IT ilk Were summarily rounded up for "control processing and reintegration" In a matter of moments I found myself in an armored vehicle Handcuffs and ankle straps, along with about thirty others All of us in stunned silence, except for the few tears and sobs, uncontrolled Free one moment, captive the next, and life changed forever Where we were headed, I knew not But I'd soon find out ... I could see through a slit in the rear door ... And as we crossed the Mass Ave Bridge into Cambridge A reflection off the River Charles lit the inside of the military transport What would turn out to be the very last rays of sunlight ... That I would ever see. ~ 3rd Place ~ in the "Freedom To Nothing To Something" Poetry Contest, Delilah Ventura, Judge & Sponsor.
