Conversation Between rabbit111 and sonali

thank you...hugs

Am I free…this question haunts me
Can see no wall no chain that binds
Yet I feel deep within tied
My body free but mind confined

How free a bird free to fly yet is bound to flock the same path
For freedom is not in wings but flight
To follow the course of ones own delight
Not subjugated or proscribed in fear of some divine or worldly wrath

Born free I was to humanity
Tied with nothing more than an umbilical cord
My naïve conscious unblemished, free of all discords
Knew nothing of worldly vanity and its insipid insanity

Needs alas, my dependence on fellow men got me enslaved
Allow captivate my conscious before it grew strong enough to construe
Differentiate right and wrong and judge what is true
Into Customs and traditions, into goodness and ill, my conscious they got firmly nailed

In malice my fellow men or in an unconscious subversion
Mitigated my mind to a mellowed subsistence
My essence slowly driven into despondence
Pushed me to the servitude of hell in the name of some supreme salvation

And today I see myself crucified on the so called altar of humanity
Pinnacle of goodness it is called, yet by what standard I don’t know
If man is not an end in himself and his virtues is not what humanity endow
What goodness, what virtue it is in damning self and revering some hypothetical divinity

What virtue it is in sacrificing oneself for fellow men
To let parasites feed on your flesh, your blood and more so on your sweat
To let go on the name of some greater good all that you deeply covet
To be a slave carrying the burden of humanity, and yet be mocked as ‘free men’

thank you rabbi..hugs and kisses**
