FREEDOM

Life leads us on with thoughts

and dreams abundant,

then drags us back to what

this world would be,

confined in the material and all

we know as physical;

so do we strive for that

which sets us free.
But freedom is yet also

an illusion, a fantasy of something

we perceive, yet all the time it hovers,

as a future, when Now is all that

we can ever be.
