If you are into poetry that lets you express your feelings and you just need to write away your troubles then free verse is the way to go. Feel free to write and discuss poets, poems, life thoughts, and philosophy:)

This is a piece I recently wrote, hope you enjoy :D.


Freedom

Freedom! What is freedom a concept so profound and yet elegant, so apparent and visible, yet so distinct and trance figured..
....
So foreign and exotic that it entices us to Constantly seek it , freedom from oppression, depression, repression, and all other forms of inequality..


See now As blacks and those from ethnic minorities, we seek freedom from being only seen as a minority, see when you are seen as a minority your life is microscopic, and sooner rather than later your life reduced and depicted to 3 simple letters....R.I.P
Not being perceived by the knowledge in our mind or the content of our heart
A meritocratic society is all we seek, but yet it seems despite our endless list of qualifications and recommendation we always seem to just fall short..
As if our ancestors did not fight for liberation and free education
So we could all get the same start in life, yet it seems the freedom they fought for is no where in sight..


And
Despite our plummeting economy and increase levels of unemployment it's funny we never seem to lack in purchases, addicted to that desiigner, even though am not rich I might as well by that panda, panda, Pandora, Prada, Porsche, Paco Rabanne, Paris Hilton (Rabanne and Hilton)
RH, am still on that recruitment hire list, still only working agency staff, yet urgently I rush to buy that stuff just so I can be stunting
now I quote " we Spent centuries In chains as slaves with brands on our bodies, now we slave to put brands on our bodies"
See Lynching was just for niggas, put a chain around your neck and now you hanging, regardless of ethnicity money doesn't discriminate
We're all slaves to change, tho seasons change our slavery remains...slaves to change
And we still clam we are free?

Women too, have been sold the lucid dream that they have achieved freedom, despite them finishing top of their class, they rarely get to the top as the glass ceiling slams shut on their dreams
Dreams Of being a pilot, mechanic, surgeon due to their biological autonomy, they remain anonymous in fields such as these....
Judged by society in terms of their role as mothers, lovers, careers. Made to feel Insecure because of their imperfections and blemishes..
Constantly having to prove their innocence, or risk reverencing ravenous rebuke.
See A woman sleeps with 15 guys before the age of 25 well she's a slag, she's a hoe and a tart. But if a man sleeps with 30 women before the age of 23, well boys will be boys.. Am I wrong
Oppressed by hierarchy.....
male supremacy...
Patriarchy..., evidence in every institution whether education, the family, the economy or even religion
Is this freedom?

Even in an institutions who's purpose is to free us we can still be enslaved, enchained as religion, tradition and personal opinions get entangled...
Or when one charismatic leader's views and beliefs are imposed on the masses
we are enslaved,
doctrinzed in doctrine we are too fearful to speak out against, now we are Slaves to both religion and fear.
....
Religion is supposed to be an opium for the masses, not subconsciously oppress the masses
Instead We have perverted the concept of faith whether it may be Islam, jewdisam or Christianity...perversion is still evident
See faith is the worst thing to be enslaved in, you are told you have a choice but yet that choice is made by others for you..
as Dogmatic views are imposed upon you..
....
are we really free??

freedom
is there truly such a thing as freedom?

The economy is not plummeting...nor is unemployment increasing.

Members of ethnic groups have achieved high status (Archbishop of York eg) as have women (theresa May).

Faith is optional in the western world.
