Oct 2013
A prisoner.
Bound by the shackles of opinion.
Hope lies behind the bars.
Time seems to slow down.
In due time, they say, you will be free.

A puppet.
Harnessed by the strings of the public.
Each step is premeditated by his master.
Will the strings ever be released?
In due time, they say, you will be free.

A spider.
Entangled in a web of burden.
Spun into the despair that he alone created.
Allowing expectations to ultimately destroy his fate.
Undo what has been done!
Time is past due.
Be free.
