Open skies beckon in something broader. Freedom is both a value and a necessity A tool to thrive To honour the Self To turn away from the safety Of the familiar Pattern. The skies are open You’re healthy! Look here! There is another way A better way One that requires faith And a broader imagination Where dreams can take flight Where one can hear true impulses Instead of the twisted cries Of those who learned to depend on others On their power and control A manipulative ploy Their familiar guide of safety Blinded to the broader picture One they cannot open to Or comprehend Because of the ever-alluring Pattern of dysfunction That keeps toxic systems alive. So thrive! And hear the beckoning cries of natures wise tears That the suffering has gone on too long And you are free to choose a brighter way
