("Peyote Dreams", 2018, original encaustic)

Freedom

Freedom blah blah blah
Say the b*tches in heat
Drawn forever to follow
What is merely their meat

Freedom they say,
but clearly don’t know
What they possibly mean
When their life is all show

Now liberty waits
Once you awake
It may seem so simple
It may seem so fake

But it’s real I tell you
And it comes from the heart
A heart filled with courage
To a brain that is smart.

Lol - well thanks for being nice Karen. This was an off the cuff response to some poem about freedom my wife read to me from a post on X which I thought was horrible...
