Unapologetic Allegiance

 


Long for

The forsaken

Embrace

of

Surety

Ringing

Clearly

From

Within 

The silence

A

Bastion

Certain refuge

From 

The

Oppressive milieu

Of

A world

Which exerts

Relentless

Coercion

Steeped

In

An insatiable 

Demand

For

Conformity

Renounce

The shackles

Of

Unfounded shame

The

Voice

Of misguided

Leaders

Render

A

Impotent echo

Presenting

As

Severed vines

Rooted

In 

Their own

Futility

Grant

Me

The liberty

Of

A

Sovereign voice

Infused

With truth

In 

Service

To 

All 

That is

And

Acquiescing 

To 

No one
