Cost of Freedom

I know no answers.

I say to myself,
“I’d never have been like that,”
should I have been there.

But who knows?

Color of my skin says
I probably would have been.

Maybe not.

Marching alongside?
Clearing a path?

Or complacent?
Quiet.

I’m here now.
Too quiet?
Too careful?

I don’t know the cost of freedom.
It was handed to me at birth.


My bloggy friends also wrote poetry. This month’s theme is Freedom:

Short and Clear” from Karen at Baking in a Tornado

  1. It was handed to me at birth too. But that freedom includes the pathway to make changes, the ability to step forward in making freedom a reality for all. The current issue is how to do that safely and effectively.

  2. Ohmyword, yes! I like to think I would have marched alongside. But my freedom, too was handed to me at birth.
    I guess I will march alongside now…
