Anarchy is the Absence of Fear

Fear builds the prisons
fear forges the chains
fear elects the tyrants
who promise safety

But look closer:
what guards the guards?
what chains the chains?
what scares fear itself?

In the space between
one breath and next
find the courage to be
ungovernable as sky

They sell us shadows
we buy locks for our doors
while the wind whispers
“everything is already free”

Power needs your terror
like flames need fuel
but who can rule
an empty throne?

In the marketplace
of anxious dreams
practice letting go
of what was never yours

No need for molotov cocktails
when you’ve dropped
the burning coal
of your own fear

The revolution blooms
in quiet gardens
where peace grows wild
and free of force

Watch how morning mist
dissolves iron bars
how sunlight melts
the walls we built
