A Sip At Freedom Poem by Lansely Amantle Mothupi

A Sip At Freedom

Rating: 5.0


Aint we allowed freedom
we told about rights
and values
but they seem like riddles to me
they got hidden explanation behind
we left to suffocate
trying to fend for our freedom
freedom which should cost breath of life

but then they always say
who am i to judge
and act as if im a black God
aint we allowed a sip at our freedom
the freedom we've been promised
before birth
before we came to earth

i want to have a sip at freedom
but with my big mug of life
i dont want to suffer no more
i want my generation of kids to love freely
because i fought for them
lets have a sip of freedom

we left to suffocate trying to fend for our freedom i want to have a sip at freedom.... This shows the poet's firm resolve to have a real freedom (as against the conventional kind) for one and all. Nicely articulated. Thanks.
