Satisfy Yourself

To answer any interrogative
remains my own prerogative.

No choices are on me forced.
No future debts sourced;
no command counsel to obey;
and, every means my own say...
retains for me all options.

Conscious only my adoptions,
only what's been spoken
are promises not t'be broken.

Life and means are so built
my own ideals're still gilt...
driving by choice in finding
only my dreams are binding.

Strength by one's own action
is owning all the satisfaction.
