Life

Lifes got my hands tied and
my options limited
trying to run this rat race
but keep trippin
and feeling trampled
trying to resist
detract
reflect
all this painful confusion and
remain focused on the
meaningful things
health
love
life
freedom
sound mind
natural delights
but life has got my hands tied
my mouth muffled
my feet bound and shackled
each movement an awkward jerk
each attempt to fly
a failed spiral collision
life
I am bound up
in this game
life
