Dare

I am what I am

True  !

People call me selfish.

May be they talk sense after all!

But I can’t help

Being what I am,

Standing for my needs, wants and selections

And for myself all together.

The Altruistic Hells burn

Inviting me to utter misery

For being disobedient,

Promising me eternal suffering

For not dumping the responsibility on Eve

(Or wasn’t it the serpent who messed everything up?)

And for not trying to crawl back

To the Garden from where my ancestors were chased out.

Despite promised damnation

I dare seek Freedom;

Not the one they promised

But the one I could trust and feel within my nature.
