Freedom

Alan R

In small cafés

In moody art stores

Souls that chased freedom

And found home

 

Within themselves

Etched in earthy walls

The imperfect colours

Of hand painted pots

 

In that custom roast coffee

In the tassels of a scarf

The aesthetic melancholy

Of a door knob’s rusted half

 

Each time the embrace

Is warmer than before

The grip of a free life

That is no longer sore.

 

-Al
