Rules of Us

Rules of Us

We are all born
into this world
as spirits free

Time and circumstance
reign over us relentlessly
with bullshit rules
of which we have no say

We either conform

or we stray

Either way

over the years we forge

our prison without bars

Captive individuals

struggling to make senseĀ 

of this life sentence

we are all serving

Hello Steve...

Parole?

If it's okay with you...

Tell the parole officer Hello for me...

I will do my time and be set free...

See you upon my release...

Hugs...
