Freedom

Freedom unleashed is not without danger
A hurricane is the work
Of complete freedom given to the lords of wind
A typhoon is the unguarded power
Of all of Poseidon’s armies
A volcanic eruption is the result
Of when nature’s mad scientist is given no boundaries
When mud slides over homes
It is the earth asserting her independence
Does not lightning strike where it will?
Do not floods fall fastly through all who block its path?
Does not the forest fire consume all in soot and dust?

So take your steps to prove your point
Be wild and free; like wind, rain and fire
Listen to your heart and gut,
Those two precious instincts that so easily fool us
Become that force to be reckoned with
I’ll wait patiently by, here in silence
Until your learn the secret of freedom
