Long Skepticism Poems

If you spill your secrets to the breeze,
Don't blame the wind for laying them to light.

Day of freedom; the merriment, happiness accompanied with it
on a stand still, halted; put in storage for another day

my personhood was exposed to freedom 
bound by subjection to authorities
