Ball and Chain
Somehow, forcing will upon something
is like hearing a melodious bird singing
but the string attached?
the bird is caged
In both instances, beauty is somewhat lost
yes, the bird still serenades
but perhaps its heart is breaking
restraint
slowly, softly, sunny gets blue
to the bird singing is no more a pleasure
it is now for the jailer's leisure
Oh Lord God, set me free
to write once more
for you will heal my heart
consecrate and set apart
but the string attached?
