Limits are good
For all that free will is fine and dandy
Limits and laws are necessary
And blessed relief
To keep our sanity installed
Only imagine a life
With nothing but choices
Of not only who to be
But even what how and where
Without the physical factuality of science
And the legal labyrinth
That we love to criticize
Imagine what power
Each person must hold
That power would be the heaviest gravity of all
Each person might be pinned to themselves
And so I thank my God
For the necessity of sleep
And the constancy of walking on the ground
For all the choices I can't make
