untitled-life is full...

by Max Rothenberg - Pisces

life is full of joyous passions
passions that fly free and strong
yet always those are among us
with intentions to impose
such hateful rules and limitations
out of envy, ignorance
fear, control and arrogance
put our passions in a cage
inhibitions so outrageous
human passion so unnurtured
love, compassion now forgotten
lost inside a prison mind
where understanding used to listen
to the singing of the heart
these are most perverse desires
they are ramming down our throats
trying hard to make us swallow
let us sharpen our teeth now
together bite into repression
rip apart its violent core
spit its seeds where only love grows
let repression breed no more
