Tha beast wants to eat
feels oversized in his skin
feed him
he’ll grow big
strong enough to break thru’ concrete
bend iron bars
cut through solid carbon steel
then break
Free
a wild instinct thirsty for
blood and raw meat
nauseated by over-diluted
zoo juice
tasteless refrigerated over-processed
turkey drumsticks & chicken wings
nutritional insult onna wild thing
wild spirit
daily dreaming
roaming Free
thru’ dense cypress forests
cool clear springs
towering acacia trees
Unchained
eternally.

me too man. I think freedom is one of those basic needs that we can’t do without.

sometimes we’ve arranged ourselves with our boundaries and are ok with the second best – we shouldn’t..

I totally agree….we get to comfy in our cages until we forget our quest for freedom

we all have that wild instinct to be free, is it not who we are?

our spirits far exceed the body we are trapped in, hence the continue instinct to be free. I once heard it said that one becomes truly free wen they rest in peace six feet deep.

sounds like you have a fierce heart – powerfully expressed, perhaps man is the beast suppressed

reminiscent of Dune ( a novel of many years ago ) – where
a young Duke is tested to to determine if he is more than an animal…. http://www.slackerlife.net/archives/275

This has the beat of rap – are you a performance poet by any chance? I could see you reciting this out loud.
