Poems
1d
The ties that bind
Deliver me from evil
cut these ropes that bind my skin
circumcise my ego
let the hunger games begin
shoot me with an arrow
square between the eyes
delight in the derogation
of those that you despise
I'm running from a dragon
flames licking at my heels
I'll not join the bandwagon
that gets joy from others' ills
I'm closing in on the finishing line
I hear the freedom song
you believed I was too weak to escape
now you see that I am strong
