For Weekend Wordsmith

Born curious,
wondering,
touching everything,
tasting, listening, breathing
deeply.
A slave to none.
Society interrupts,
don't, stop,
you can't, you
shouldn't.
Don't touch,
taste, listen inward;
don't think.
Breath shallow.
A slave to all.

Lenore,
I love this. The difference in the way we breathe reflects the amount of freedom we feel. This is great. Thanks.
