Blitzing

Run, not for your life but for freedom!

Danger close but you venture to the land of wisdom

The imperative need to prosper as an ambition

Off to the land of the free, you must juxtaposition

An illuminating sparkle in the new world

Intrigued by the perfect imperfection

To only find your misconception

Even in the land of the free you’re imprisoned

Not the way it was envisioned

Estranged because of your decent

Don’t need anyone’s consent

For in this world, sympathy is futile, every man for himself
