Don'T Define Me
don’t define me
don’t restrict me
don’t box me
don’t tell me what is and what is not
don’t tell me what I can and I cannot think
don’t tell me what I can and cannot say
essence of democracy - today
I “pray”
making foray
into this capitalist jungle
seeking truth
seeking knowledge
seeking substance
another ray of hope
another ray of sunshine
beautiful night
asking for solace
asking for hope
grace’s mercy
grace’s dignity
grace’s answers
searching for grace.
