The moment it happened,
While the shock was still fresh in heart and mind,
Aft' my world upended,
When all that what one defines oneself with,
Was just taken away,
Could no more answer when asked what I do,
Which tasks for others I fill up my days,
With a shake of my head seeking pity,
For the system we slave,
Free yet restricted, like monkeys in zoos,
Our path marked out and paved?
This was once first,
In truth, it still might be,
At least for expressing, in truth, my thoughts,
Sometimes they need time for maturity.
