Chanson de la Liberte

To give, to take,
To forgive, to forsake –
Need to live or just fake
Living in the shells?

Striving, crying,
Surviving and dying,
But not even trying
To break out of cells.

Existence exalted,
Insistently insulted –
Want it peppered? Or salted?
Just choose what you will.

Compassion compared
With passion and flares
Of hatred - beware
Of being so drilled.

The emotions’ motions
And the oceans of lotions
But no sign of explosion
In the minds of obsessed;

One small step aside
Will lead all the pride
To the imminent grind
We are made to call zest.

But the kings be dethroned –
And the order is gone,
And the earth full of moans
Will plead for its cells;

So the choice is to take,
To forgive and forsake,
Try to live in the fake
Life in the shells.
