Analysis of Your Spirit Freed Within



Do you remember what you’ve written,
  can you elicit every thought

Does it stay within your memory,
  or escape to others sought

Is it linear or transcendent,
  on the page or in the wind

Can you still retain the title,
—to what your spirit freed within

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2017)
