    I like the contrast between the image of a bird taking flight and the poem, whose speaker is imprisoned. Very cool juxtaposition 🙂

      Sometimes we need to free the find to truly see the answer so obviously in front of us.

        very true 😉 Did you see the Matrix? I ask because your comment mirrors the premise of that film.

        that is one of its central points. Everything falls out from that of freeing your mind.

        Will check it out…it is not on Netflix but I am pretty sure my son must have it. He is a movie buff.

        If you like action movies, you’ll love it. The sequels weren’t so great taken as a whole though each of the sequels had moments that were truly cinematic gems.

        I just finished watching on Neflix, 24…the entire 8 episodes…not my usual style but really enjoyed it…had to close my eyes many times with the violence. I really like Kieffer Sutherland.

        I’ve not watched much of that series. I’m not a tv watcher but it’s on my to watch list for when I need a break from writing/working 🙂
