Soul's Desire

soul desires
to be heard
yet ego...
the coward
makes
it mute,
imposing
its authority.

Ego truly is an imposing authority - just another coward and a bully too. Good prose poem..the kind which encourages a poet to write another one since it opens up further exploring into its depths.
