'We Are Free 07/11/2009
Mankind is said to be fallen, human race
corrupted by Lucifer’s whiles, world lost,
yet reality is man-made and exploited
by people with ulterior motives
Unprincipled people use creeds – religious,
scientific, material, spiritual, to reduce us
to slavery, no system guarantees goodness
or changes our ability to choose
We cannot control how systems and beliefs
are used, creeds become what we use them
for, people with integrity find love and
sincerity in everything
I admire all who beautify the world through
bravery and loving deeds and accept the
freedom-enhancing aspects of religions,
rejecting claims of exclusive truth
Anything can be realized by me and you
we are free to create and enjoy our
own visions and dreams...
