Freedom is an Oxymoron

Hate this room, 
Hate this life.
Need a final escape,
Emancipation for good.

So the chair that 
Warmed your ass, 
Supports a final climb 
And doesn't hesitate to 
Topple this time.

The noose tightens 
Around your neck. 
Eyeballs pop out,
Tounge sticks between 
The teeth and the drool off 
Your mouth greeses the 
Rusty ribs, so that 
The soul can escape 
Without any grate.

The legs sway rapidly, 
The hands try to conjure 
Help for one last time but 
The feather like beast-
Your soul, is already on
Its maiden flight- 

Only to get stuck in 
The cobwebs in the 
Upper right corner of
The room.

One prison pushing you 
Into another.
The beyond you sought 
Now stares at the chair 
Uou had toppled-

The ass-less soul misses
Its cozy warmth and 
Freedom that was within 
The walls-
Freedom works that way.
Freedom is an oxymoron.
