Roy Unbound

I tried to cage the muse
I tried to cage the silverbird
I tried to hide the puma
I tried to hide the eagle
I tried to hide the art in I
I tried to pen just but a little

The cumulative pressure
The cumulative effect
I almost lost I..

Hitting the ground without a chute
Hitting the ground running

The guy on a wing and a prayer
Jehovah you are Elshaddai
You are My provider

I do now soar unhindered
I always want to soar free
I love the wind on my face
The scribble of mine pen
Gives I unrivaled joy

For art should never be caged
Its akin to stifling out
The very breath of life
Its akin to forfeiting life itself
An artist minus the art

....
Is like a zombie..
No flames of life..
No sparks of love..


An artist free your soul
Heed to your calling
Free thee from the chains
Don't sell thine soul
To an-others path

Roy you are but
A resource beneath
A cloud..
