I do not enslave
Because I do not need anything
Except self
When I want something outside of self
I am enslaving because I try to posses such thing
But when I realize nothing should be possessed
And everything is free
I lose attachments
I lose the chains
I lose the bondage
From trying to
Have
Have
Have
Realizing that abundance is not something to gain
But instead
It's something to...
Accept as a part of thyself.

Because when you enslave something
*saying*
"This is mine"
You also enslave one's self to wanting
Particular thing
And when this thing leaves
Within head
A idea has now been created
That
"This is mine"
So you in turn it's believed
That one lost a part of self
By you haven't
Because you never
Had
Rather, one always was
