MORTGAGED
Mortgaged
**********
In the palatial corridors
With rays of light
Profusely
scattering
Through oriels
Like a bonded
slave
You were standing
With folded hands
Close to your
painting
Depicting
limitless sky
And birds longing
To touch the
horizon
When the patron
Was beholding it
You stood still
As if you were
Not the breath
Behind this beauty
Your wings
Could not flutter
Clipped and
mortgaged
To the patron were
Your reveries
Inspiration
And vision.
