Poem- “Irony of Freedom”

“Irony of Freedom”


Freedom of speech is not always speech.

The phrase begins with the word “freedom”, not “speech”.

Remember what a dictator’s speech is.

Speech is not always a kind of freedom.

Readers can stop reading this poem and turn off their computers.

Maybe they need a little quiet.

That’s fine.

It’s really about freedom.

And, for freedom, we get both silence and noise within reach of liberty.

“What does that mean?”

Shut up!

I ain’t talking to ya.
