John Goodman Poet Free verse

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.
