RE: ADSactly Poetry - Three poems about dangerous lifestyles

in #poetry7 years ago

Well done, the poems are really inspiring; I appreciate your advocacy for more freedom, peculiarly for the ruled by the rulers. You also point out rightly that we thought we were entitled to freedom but never really had. I will want us to see this from another related perspective. Man is free; and everywhere he is in chain. We are limited by our so called ‘freedom’. I think this is ultimately because man is a social animal. Man essence absolutely is defined by his society; both internal and external society. The more we associate, the lesser we are free as the rights and privileges of others becomes something to the mindful of. This is the case of a civilised mind not with the individual with a state of nature mind where life is supposedly to short, solitary, nasty, brutish and poor.
