We are Free!

We are Free!

by mazHur



You live like all live,
you die as All do
Under the Same sun
Under the same Moon
Under the same sky
in garments of etched gold
or rags of ferrous garb
Nothing makes you special
nothing extra-ordinary
freedom nor absence of wants
a good master keeps his dog well-fed
unleashes him when he wants
feeds him well
the dog is also Free
freer than you may be
but you think he's not
Ever thought?
Everybody is Free
In his own world
In his own ways
yet all are in chains
imprisoned in a cage
within a bigger cage!!

That is the truth. That's one for the ages, mazHur.

This is a philosophical offer and the obvious of course. And of course the master that tends the dog is also fettered and the fetter that fetters the man that leashes the do is also shackled to someone and one lives on another eternally. And yet we enjoy the idea of freedom or freedom it self in a different version. Is it what you want to say through your poem or something more?
