Scribbles of a jaded Mind

Escape

Restrain your thought!

It said.

Being a slave and nought,

I paid.

Nod to each teaching,

It drawled.

 With no questioning?

I brawled.

Keep the young mind at bay;

It preached.

Watch as it goes astray;

I screeched.

Let the queries be bold

Let the myths unfold;

Don’t preach the preacher,

Let reason be the teacher.

Move beyond

The song of slavery,

In thought and in deed,

Embrace the voice of gallantry.

Escape the devil

That represses your thought,

Seek and unveil

What’s not sought.
