Random Musing

S H April 14, 2003

Tags:

The spirit is free,
the vessel is not.
The mind looks far beyond
as thoughts crash
against barbed wires.
And the tongue must remain
locked.

Must not. Should not.
The limits are set.
Examples to teach.
Grow or rot.
The lines are drawn.
It remains,
terms, rules, dictated.

Yes, I realise.
But
do we all not have
unique fingerprints?
