Freedom

'More Opinions, Politics & Comments' ~ #30-401-B

When more is demanded than we desire to give,
we're deprived of the liberty required to live.
Keeping silent allows stifling despots to bring
oppressive ideologies to which they cling.

While chafing at restraints of the burdensome noose,
it necessitates the bonds be severed and loosed.
Sovereign nations that yearn to fly high and free
refuse to accept autocratic tyranny.

Freedom requires vigilance or we risk losing it.
