My Savage Would Say
who behind gated
walls would know?
even my savage
couldn’t answer this,
watching as they
peak out most confidently
from behind their
steel and wires.
what i think my savage
would say is:
beyond your walls
you are free to be tested,
so go ahead and dance,
throw yourself about,
go from valley
to mountaintop,
and again,
my savage
would say,
i dare you
to be free.
it’s your life
you understand
