Free But Not Dumb-Freedom Poem by Chuy Amante

Some say freedom is not FREE.
I say freedom is not Dumb!
Dumb are the sheep
you wander into pens
with one gate
and a bully guarding it.

Be not dumb, avoid all forms
of slavery
be not a slave
to passions
nor money systems
nor belief systems
nor any powerful man
nor poor choices

break the chains while
they are still plastic
find the holes in the fence
don't ask for masters

see freedom,
be free not dumb
a free dummy!
