Ineptitudinal longing

Rattling the cage with my ineptitude 

exhaustion figures the fight a mere dream 

and as I  lay here dreaming of freedom 

I sit bound by constraint knawing the last nerve

to be less than whole of a former self 

to fight like a lion and live in a slug 

the process is pain 

slowest is the tempo 

nil is the momentum 

in my mind I'm rattling cages

dreaming of lost freedom.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
