The Restraints On the Freedom To Think

Do I hold my ground or am I simply tethered Free will an illusion as I'm cornered by thoughts Perhaps I'm abandoned, already lost to time To be aware of the notion of ticking time Esoterica encircles, remain tethered Ache of belonging existing only in thoughts To release this mind should I unravel those thoughts The edges unfurl as vision mixes with time Recognition of the duty to stay tethered Tethered choices tangle thoughts time and time again

Great take on the contest theme. Not an easy form, as I’m discovering.

I found putting the template of my three words in the required order helped it to form - good luck!
