A Poem’s Freedom
No poem immured within
Author’s intentions can thrive.
Release inclined resistance;
Yield to individual
Interpretation; cut loose
Tightly-bound preconceptions
To liberate and expand
Scope beyond expectation.
Embrace all transformation
Born of vastly diverse views
To bring a composition
To life within its own world
Where it can morph according
To whims found in ambiance
Of one perceiver’s exhale
And yet another’s inhale.
In its freedom, a poem
Truly discovers itself.
Infinite perspectives and
Unrestrained exploration
Create ever-dynamic,
Joyful poetic-being.
