Words of freedom

Miranda rice 1997 (Spring valley)

Free verse
What to say
Words to hear
To listen
To stare
So
Many words do you dare
A chance to say
Whatever you may
Freedom of speech so they say
When does that become
All the words into some
Sayings they keep
Always replaying
Only what they want
To hear
To listen
To stare
That’s the only thing they think is fair
As we sit and struggle
This is hardly even middle
Class as they judge
Put us into three
But where supposed to be free
