Every word I write
I break bonds of iniquity
Every poem that is formed
Stretches my name
His name
Into the vastness of the heartland
Every sentence composed
Every line scribbled
Every inspiration
Riding on the winds
Forms the rhythm
Of a work
Commissioned before the entry point
Into this world
Every time I say yes
To the creative miracle within
Chains break
Prison doors open
I am
We are
Set free.
