Analysis of Freedoms
Is freedom our rite of passage?
Is it gifted to us at birth?
Can we say, do, think, dream or love
Whatever we desire?
What does it mean to have freedom?
To speak our minds and know no shame
In disagreeing with others,
Would that be our freedom?
What is freedom’s antithesis?
Locked away, incarcerated
For penning any prejudice -
Would that be freedom lost?
