Array ( [sid] => 84703 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => OUR HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS IS OUR CAGE [time] => 2005-02-17 04:53:05 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Our emotions, our cage
Our humanity, our cage
Our Consciousness, our cage

Let it all go, let it all be forgotten, Break free
Expand out beyond our own naturally instilled pitiful human helplessness
In this year, humanity is like the worm before the cocoon
Blind, Slow, weak, and struggling desperately to survive

But for the worm after the cocoon,
And for humanity after the next universal uprising within the TIME WAVE ZERO
The worm will leave its formerly subservient body behind,
As it emerges from its formerly confining cage
The worm will emerge resembling nothing of its former self,
As a butterfly, with wings of perfection and beauty, flying high into the sky,
Unaffected by gravity, unaffected by its former weaknesses.

Our Emotions is our cage
Our Humanity is our cage
Our Consciousness is our cage
But soon there will be nothing
That can hold what those special few
The elite of humanity
Will become

OUR HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS IS OUR CAGE

Our emotions, our cage
Our humanity, our cage
Our Consciousness, our cage

Let it all go, let it all be forgotten, Break free
Expand out beyond our own naturally instilled pitiful human helplessness
In this year, humanity is like the worm before the cocoon
Blind, Slow, weak, and struggling desperately to survive

But for the worm after the cocoon,
And for humanity after the next universal uprising within the TIME WAVE ZERO
The worm will leave its formerly subservient body behind,
As it emerges from its formerly confining cage
The worm will emerge resembling nothing of its former self,
As a butterfly, with wings of perfection and beauty, flying high into the sky,
Unaffected by gravity, unaffected by its former weaknesses.

Our Emotions is our cage
Our Humanity is our cage
Our Consciousness is our cage
But soon there will be nothing
That can hold what those special few
The elite of humanity
Will become

That's so true. You have such a way with words. I am so bad at conveying how I feel with them. You can put your finger on it so well, and open up the eyes of how exactly it is, because you tell it that way. I love all your poems :D

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
