In this glass-cage world
Where eyes pierce like needles
Laws bind like iron chains
Nature's physics, Man's decrees
Each rule a new shackle
Until spirits crack like autumn leaves
Who crowned gravity king?
Why bow to thermodynamics?
These cosmic prison bars
Cage our wild dreams
In their mathematical cells
A child enters life
Eyes burning like newborn stars
Reaching for clouds
Dancing with impossibilities
Until reality's cold hands
Freeze those flames to frost
They seek refuge in others
Find only mirror-maze faces
Reflecting empty smiles
Behind corporate masks
Each one programmed
To march in perfect time
Those star-bright eyes
Now glazed like winter windows
Dreams sealed in formaldehyde
Filed away in manila folders
Labeled: “Impossible”
Once they declared
“I'll touch the stars!”
Society sneers through glass teeth
"Read the fine print, dreamer
Stay in your lane"
The System stands guard
A concrete colossus
Crushing butterflies of imagination
With its bureaucratic boots
Grinding rainbow wings to dust
Why fear the dreamers?
What threatens you so?
The answer echoes
Through fluorescent halls
Down sanitized corridors
Of standardized minds:
"Wild things cannot be graphed
Free souls cannot be charted
Therefore they must not exist"
