No Man Owns Nothing
No man owns nothing,
to own something
would mean
to move
one letter and
introduce an apostrophe
back three spaces!
See, owning something
has already dragged you
back three paces and
the ability
to say
no!
And that is something,
we can delve on
after
you've somehow
hypothetically
gone ahead,
made the effort
and conquerred/bought/won
something.
Are you a free man now?
Now you've turned that no man owns nothing
to man's own thing,
that "thing",
my dear,
is nothing but an illusion
with a
gravity.
And I hope you now understand
the gravity of this
situation.
