Soul Discomforts

We were free to choose,
or so they said. The heart
now afraid to leave her shell
requires warranties as well
as a performance bond,
where once it was acceptable
to be merely fond,
and feeling that fidget in the soul
invite someone for a stroll.
Those desires that become need
to loose contained spirits
and inspire bold deed,
lead roundabout
in ever-tightening spiral.
Only then
can we hear
it's plaintive viral
cry for full freedom
again.
