And expression, oh expression The truth, the lie From my pen flutter, in cathartic flourish. These thoughts trapped you might release These bounded philosophies, between The unbreakable wall of my skull Set free, through the tendons of my hand Unto the pressed, pulped tree. Humanity, caged, has but one freedom Infinite, boundless, mind surpassing matter The words, in stream, resolving truths Dissolving lies, fantasy and reality in one. Those who express, know its true value To nurture empathy, sharing the journeys of others. The future is neither bleak nor hopeful Like the cosmos, it is an unwritten page For our minds and imaginations to jot And scrawl, and pen, and scribe, and articulate And write, and write, and write!
