"The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not mov'd with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils."
~ Lorenzo from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice (V, i, 83-85)

Declaration of Independence
Friday, August 14, 2009You can never contain a spirit
That wants to be set free -
It will toss and turn, and struggle until
The chains you have placed are set free.
You can never silence a voice
That wants to be heard:
The tongue is a powerful gift -
Sharp and articulate, it has the ability
To build, to move, to destroy.
You can never control a mind
That wants to be bold,
One that wants to be independent
For so long as one’s will is strong,
The mind remains an inviolable realm.
No hand can stop a free spirit.
Freedom is a force to be reckoned with -
A force which, once broken,
Will wreak havoc
Until the balance is regained.
