Set Free Poem by Mark louie Cañete

Set Free



Windows are shut
And doors are close
Only darkness is at the most
Be it, to such a sloth!

But what is there more to this?
Even fools seek happiness
Does a prison no more privileged?
Then what more is the purpose to live?

What Makes It funny?
Isn't it that you have already taken it away?
What is there left to the deprived?
There is only a rubbish left by the Pride?

What then is the purpose of these lives?
If only those who are strong has the rights
Are you not ashamed you step on the weak?
Pretending that there is no one in the creak?

Why can't you give what is due?
Rather giving your own residue
Set prisoners free, set the weak free
Because you are not really strong if you let them not secure!

Great expression for those that are unjustly imprisoned, which I'm sure there are too many to count. It's sad that this goes on in our society. The innocent are falsely accused while the guilty are set free. Thanks for inviting me to comment. Kindly read my poem entitled 'Finally Free' and please comment on it.

Hello Mark.... Honored you asked me to share my point of view about your very valuable art. As I read and ride the powerful waves of 'Set Free' at a certain point I am consumed into the horrors the artist is painting. Such a sincere brave out-pouring of the agonized soul who cannot bare to be imprisoned any longer by the shameful powers that be. Such an honest wailing and cry in the night.... Thanks so much for sharing this art with us all.......... Jim Troy
