Notes About The Poem
It's funny how sometimes we are so glad to be free of somethings while other are so envious of those constraints we may have just been liberated from. This poem attempts to show this.
Blindfolded
I fell in love when I first peered,
Peered deep into her intentions.
She removed my blindfold,
Releasing my eyes from other people's deceptions.
Excited, no longer emotionally blind,
Or living in a daze.
I jumped for joy, intellectually free,
Free to escape this moral maze.
I became open, brave and honest,
Fun, spirited and daring.
Trying everything that was noble,
Noble like giving and sharing.
Giving important things she wanted,
Giving love, lust and security.
And sharing all sorts of truths,
All truths of utter impurity.
And then she told me her desire was to be,
Blindfolded away from the light.
To imprison her mind, she said it would be
An excitingly ferocious delight.
She loves her emotional blindness,
Intellectually in the black.
Now I’m free to chain her mind down,
With a quick, harsh, punishing smack.
