Cat on a Leash

Most majestic cool dragonflies
Some dogs leashed other dogs unbridled ...

As his dreams drift to worlds withdrawn,
Among his cell, shadows spawn,
His freedom's leashed, yet hope lives on.

Sly whispers echo through stone,

A sword unsheathed from its scabbard can pierce a heart.

...Speech

Free speech, 
is the power of one person, 
to say, anything they like, 
to have an opinion, 
and to have it heard,
