How is one one to experience pure and inhibitionless freedom?
Oh Freedom, how I long and fret
Every minute for you to embrace
My burdened soul ...
Oh fickle folly of the hair-brained
Do you really live beyond some lofty portals
Or, are you just a crazy dream
Wrought upon by cursed smoke and narcotics,
You have befooled many,
Who never shall cease
To lay themselves upon you feet
Do you not have a heart
To have pity on damned souls
Of those who long till eternity
When their lives are nothing but brief ...
It seems to me that fear and greed are constantly preying on my ability to exist freely and independently -- ability to see clearly and thus experience reality as it is. And, mind it, I am not talking about experience in terms of moments isolated from their moorings in chronological time and sociological context. It is easy to look at oneself by dividing an experience and time into their various facets--emotional propensity, visual details, psychological dependencies, and subjective outcome of the experience measured from a selected point of reference.
*** Pardon the convulted prose. I am still working on keeping it simple.
