FREEDOM // poem by Madhu Mehrotra

I, a free spirit

Left the heavens

for freedom

Tied to body

I left the womb

for freedom

Nurtured by parents

I left the family

for freedom

Tethered to an organization

I left the job

for freedom

Purchased an A I watch

To have time 

for freedom

Monitored by the device

I search

for freedom. 

Madhu Mehrotra has lived her life in the hills. A flash in eternity, now here now gone
