Freedom

Freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom from secret's weight
shoulders held high
lightened from lying load.
Eyes are open & clear
barn doors are unsecured,
fat, toothy, & drooling inhabitants
let loose to roam freely.

Once dangerous beasts
are powerless over me;
they're treacherous only to those
who deny their existence.
They prod, peel, & poke at
blind Peter's subconscious
aging once young & vibrant soul;
visage takes on that of dying.

Sweet pets remain,
kind, gentle, warm-fuzzies,
joyfully open & gay,
gathered 'round grey matter.
No more regretful secrets
or shamed, bold faced lies;
visage takes on that of
a young & vibrant soul.

Freed, freed, freed,
Freed from secret's weight
lightened shoulders held high
& heavy load of lies forgotten.
Mind is open & clear
thoughts & feelings unsecured;
fat, toothy, drooling deceits
are loose & roaming freely....

...watch yourself.

Ah, what a relief
I feel so much better now.
