Fettered Poem by Andy Brookes

Fettered

Rating: 5.0


Chains of the mind are more powerful than those of iron;
it fetters thought and slews our self image.

after all we sometimes are the sum of other peoples thoughts
and we buy into the good life or the dream.

sometimes we have to wake up to the nightmare of reality,
or we become a stereotype or a self fulfilling prophecy.

yowling at the moon straight jacketed by other's prejudice
and crying no fair.
