The Cage
A bird with a chain,
a collar and all.
this leash connects a free spirt
to its master.
The cage has opened a door
for just a moment.
you leap at this chance and take advantage.
free as the wind - u feel - flying with passion
a sudden yank on this chain
makes you fall to the ground.
it pulls you back to the jail.
try as u might,
youll never be free.
your persistance is shinning bright.
claws dug deep in the surface
sullen crys are heard from a distance
being choked by the invisible ropes.
just a short distance till they have you,
back to the cage is where they want you,
they can almost reach you.
you are lifted by the collar to the gate of your demise.
thrown into this cage and locked up,
handcuffs and chains are seen around you.
skeletons make their pressence know in the darkness.
they have caught you,
back at home is where you stay,
out of the window is the gate.
clear as can be
to see this cage.
the one that binds you to this routine
a collar and all.
