can only write so fast

the idea is never going away
most likely with me until I can no longer hold the pen
dangerous thoughts mostly hidden before written
man can only write so fast
to a steady eye it might still be a blur
any detail could be missed so pay attention
government will take advantage of complacency
is freedom what is lived or what is being waited for
the rest of my time I will be free
man can only write so fast
who do I really think I am
is freedom who I am or what I am waiting for
able to be anywhere anytime
to be limited in movement is to
think that I can’t move but I can
things are easy when I know I am free
out of the control of others as much as possible
for more than merely a moment by
himself a man can only write so fast

almost the end of another day they stack up
inevitably alone for now not forever
he can see all positive on the road ahead what
comes next welcomed even if unknown
to the mind pushing pens until they are out of ink
the freedom to continuously think any
conclusion will not come today
that will be further down this road somehow
the freedom needs to be taken back from
government thieves putting hands in pockets
he can only move so fast simultaneous
lives living for that freedom
under watchful eyes freedom is under fire
is freedom who you are as well—don’t be
dishonest with yourself—it’s probably
insane to not want freedom
and know it is
intolerable to never let yourself be freedom…
