Freedom by Zee Nyathi

You’re too mortal to understand

Why, I -

With this body

You call ’to die for ’

Still choose not to bandage my limbs

Or cripple my soul.

I dress the way I do

Not because of fashion deformity.

If it wasn't against the law,

I would walk naked

But I understand,

Ragged chic, Bohemian chic

Is as close I will ever get to Eden!

My being is expression

of freedom & spirituality.
