Who Owns You? Poem by Chuy Amante

Who Owns You?

Rating: 5.0


Sui Juris! ! !

I asked my kid a few days back
who owned him,
he thought a bit...

he 'hoped' he owned himself
but knew there were powers
above him, controlling his life
he knew he was not free

a lost concept in much of the world
Human Sovereignty,
no one above me,
all equal, self-directed,
free, happy

dying concepts... tearfully

A very poignant thoughtful write.In today's context majority of general mass is imprisoned in some way or other.Thanks for sharing.
