Untamed

Words are wild and free,
As all things natural ought to be.
Why do you insist on caging a being
That doesn't really fit in any frame?

Try to mould it all you want.
Artificial templates and dry rules
Cannot shackle its true essence.

Keep your intellectual patterns
And your regurgitated limits
Away from my presence.
My words would rather be dead
than tamed.
