Caged

Caged Freedom to dwell wherever I tread Not confined to locations with boundaries Zoning, districts, busing Unleash me so I can roam free To see mountains and rivers and trees of all sorts To open up and breathe in fresh air Somewhere where the sky is not blocked but in plain view Uncage me so I can go FREE.
