fettered freedom



the mind -
a scoop of rainbow
in the summer sky,
the softness of the salt
in a teardrop,
the choked voice
in a suffocated throat,
the elixir off the fountain
in the forbidden terrain of innocence.

the mind -
the wings of a unicorn
the golden glint in the eye of the dragon
the darkness of the dungeon of death
the black grey silver of life
the only open window
the only locked door
the only prison
the only cascading river
... the mind
