You are but a data point
Nothing more nothing less
In the journey from birth to death
The occassions are countless

You are but a statistical input
A cog-wheel in the societal throughput
An analyst at times
And at times an analytical output

It’s an intellectual trap
An evolutionary mishap
Ended up at the wrong side of the map
A constant *BOLO* for a U-turn gap

The gap of basic freedom
The oft hyped and overrated freedom
The trick is to “exercise” freedom
And not succumb to the systemic fiefdom

Thereby lies the true choice
To define and re-write yourself in whole
Move from being a mere data point
To being a Free-spirted soul

_{*BOLO – Be On the LookOut
*Fiefdom – a territory or sphere of operation controlled by a particular person or group.}
