I am a child of the loop with
tied hands at the mercy of the world,
which spins as I spin within it.
Watching Waiting Anticipating
for no good reason
other than for hope.
In hope I imagine
that my feet will walk
in enlightened places
and my voice will
speak from an enlightened heart.
In hope I imagine
making righteous choices
and knowing that
they are indeed
right.
Does the hope for wanting actions really matter?
I feel that I spin in predefined circles,
a slave to the world’s constraints.
Freedom is not what they tell you it is.
It’s a gimmick to keep you more in line than
if they told you we’re slaves.
Ah, yes. But, I can be free within my mind.
Is that not right?
“My mind to me a kingdom is, such present joys therein I find.”
But, will my mind eventually convince me the world is really alright,
that we are indeed free?
Or, should my mind tell me the way it really is, so that I can hope?
*I should really pay more attention to my sig.
