Of Sovereign Hearts and Rebellious Paths

There’s always just enough
even after
the final scraps

have been devoured

the energy of life
continues through digestion

Squirrels digging holes
to horde for winter

Hermits walking trails
trying to forget

all the dust kicked up
as cloaks are shaken

no longer to appease
the tyrant’s will

cake laid in the streets
and beggar’s choosing

glory of freedom fields
in place of boots
