Freedom

Celebrating 50 years of living with a 'freedom ride' into England and Scotland

Freedom
7/4/09

Where lays the attraction
for the concept portrayed
behind this overused word,
both negative and positive,
some people hear 'chaos',
'anarchy', that anything goes,
others relate to sovereignty,
power, choosing self determination,
also there's wild abandon
no sense of restriction
being like an animal
following one's pure instinct
letting life unfold accordingly
fiercely unafraid of results
only knowing energy surge
headlong pursuit in direction
toward essential creative stimulation
spurred by hungry desire
or release of confinement,
any domination by others
who restrict our abilities
to play, enjoy life,
be inspired by miracle,
this diverse teeming existence,
while embodying our omnipotence,
connected to all Creation
and it's inherent freedom.
