Independent Poem by Echo of the forest

Independent

Rating: 5.0


We are independent
we have evolved to the point
where we no longer need
an executioner
we decapitate ourselves

we just had to sign
here, here and here
oh
and here, that's perfect

to sign that we are aware
that everything has a price

then the apple was handed to us
the one which we put to our head
and bites.
