I'm Back from the Dead

I'm Back from the Dead

A Poem by Thomas W Case
"

Here is a link to my YouTube channel where I read my poetry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn9IAYo0wZE

"
I will not be
subdued.
Cages don't suit me.
I have to be free.
Fly
run
sing
dance in the
open fields, swim
in the river with
the fish and water snakes.
My soul can't be
taken without my permission.
The access is denied.
My heart isn't yours to
mock and rape.
I will rise like
the phoenix from
the ashes and sail on against
the azure sky, free and
untethered.
Resurrected
I'm back from the dead.
