11 Eb
Yellow Spectral
Human
Of all the crimes
which humankind commits
Of all injustices
and harms likewise
Slavery no valid
defense permits
Yet it prevails in
all lands in disguise
Like Osiris we are
bound in coffins
Made of flesh and
blood in third dimension
The soul as
butterfly beneath the pins –
Caught in matter
without comprehension
The theft of freedom
maims adult and child
Akin to savage
severing of limb
The spirit born to
thrive within the wild
Can never soar, explore,
express or climb
Imprisoned by Birth
and Bondage are we
Thus One cannot fly
unless All are free.
