How does one define freedom?

its a task that'd lead many to boredom,

for freedom is infinite,

 

a schoolbook's word isn't definite

in spelling out reality,

that people aren't all troubled by an opposite,

unless they're told so,

a free person can ignore this,

why let prejudice disrupt business?

a paying customer is attractive,

no matter how primitive

 

for you see freedom is undefinable

by those who find choice objectionable,

a free man is one who decides

"yeah, I want to serve him,

regardless of his skin."

I wrote this when i was tired and out of ideas, I guess I just wanted to explain what I thought freedom meant.
