Against what criteria
Are you testing

Whose rules and roles
Are you obeying

Without questioning
You've been grounded

Old rulebooks 
Require scrutiny

Who is defining
The virtue / vice 
Exchange rate

What's good for the master
Not so for the slave

There's nothing for the meek to inherit
Cut through the static

How high is your resistance to the herd
At what capacity are you operating

You have a duty
To total autonomy
Owe them no loyalty

Use your will to power
Create

Ok. This might be my last poem for today but it’s only 10:00 PM 🙂
