F the Doors Open

I am he who says goodnight. Don't take me for a label. At least I'm from a time when thought, Use portents undue fable. Vuck doors and rules to hide lyrics lying for a sadist, Lest the sense of selves perchance; employ spells of'n alchemist. I invoke the inner man. I invoke to see that who wants for we. Gather us, from we you'll be, And carry such until we're free. I invoke the word of man, Laughing at such laze. Pretended by a lack of can, To be without my gaze. Round about the cauldron go, The trumper sure to ever know. Gasp for breath and ask for why, This stunt d'serves 'nother try.

Hello, Beej! It's so nice to meet you. Your poem is so deeply layered that I had to read it multiple times to at least try and grasp a few of its many, many meanings. The brevity of the language used is admirable, inspiring even. Themes of censorship, moral constraints, identity labels, passive obedience, dehumanizing systems, and so much more are explored here. The way you write reminds me of Shakespeare, actually. It's archaic, ritualistic, almost, as with the reference to Macbeth. Beautiful.
