Its fine for one,
Not another,
To rise Above?
Or to rise against?
For the birn may touch the sun,
Or struck down by an eagle,
Morals cannot be found,
If wings are beating,
The bird wants only life,
As does the eagle,
But neither shall stay airborne,
The winds will not allow it,
to resist is to be compelled,
for few have ever made decisions.
