Atheist Haiku

To be is to live

Life unshackled and freely

Unchain human thought

Most of you are probably not aware I have a site dedicated to Haiku poetry. If you enjoy that type of thing click here. Have an awesome day!!

This meme/haiku reminded me of Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself“…

I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

[…]

The past and present wilt—I have fill’d them, emptied them,
And proceed to fill my next fold of the future.

Listener up there! what have you to confide to me?
Look in my face while I snuff the sidle of evening,
(Talk honestly, no one else hears you, and I stay only a minute longer.)

Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)

A human being is most beautiful, most genius, most inspiring when it is fully free to create, nurture, support, and be brilliantly supported… without confinement, imprisonment, or repressive disempowerment. 🙂
