Freedom: August 15, 2016

The freedom to love the man I want.
Or a woman perhaps.

The freedom to eat a pie. A pig. 
A cow perhaps.

The freedom to walk unafraid. 

At six. At nine. At two perhaps.

The freedom to raise a child. To have one. 
Or not perhaps.

The freedom to ask a question. To demand. 
To challenge perhaps.

The freedom to have a God. A faith. 
Or not perhaps.

The freedom to shake. To uproot. 
To create anew perhaps.

The freedom to have a life. Make a living. 
To live perhaps.

Happy Independence Day
