Freedom Is

Freedom is 
complex affairs
walking barefoot
lover’s shoes still warm
happy home


Freedom is 
landscapes of complication
binding flowers
Chaining pedals
Intertwining exit of padlocks

Freedom is 
desolate harmony
saxophone captivation
kidnapped instrument of dissonance

Freedom is
opposition-al terror
fists of illiteracy
callous and cold
bleeding knowledge


Freedom is 
heartbroken beauty
painting behind closet doors
The streets are 
Cold, Wet and Dark
profession of harrowing persistence


Freedom is
mother’s watching glare
Confined Shelter Protected 
Invulnerability heart
conditional truth
camouflaged passion 
her brainwashed eyes
See Your Freedom
