This is no more than a surmise

I have only authority over me
But my freedom yes freedom
Is hard earned
Am free - even from myself
Myself?Like the flowing water
I can take so many forms
Some see what contains me as me
No I don’t mean my body shape nor
a bucket or a chattery stream

In their head they have created
A vessel to contain people like me
Once I became a hammer in someone’s head
That very same person used the hammer
To hit their head I just provided the additional

I have my opinions about the way I see the world

No need to escape and make me the monster
In your head that wants to enslave you because
Even if you think that am a part of the monster now
That is not true that is the vessel you created for
People that seem to be like me.
And if they placed you in a box inside their head you are

They are not around no need to remember who you are to
