Confined to a Cage

Looking at the bird sitting in her cage

Instill in me a thought of modern man’s stage

We are caged in our inhibitions

We are caged in our indignation

We are caged in our binding

Either Social or Self imposed obligations

Incarcerated by our Vices in state of limbo

In lust, anger, greed, attachment and ego

Caged in our ambiguity

Breathing in duality

A bird can get freedom some day

But a man in his cage will always stay.
