Freedom for Homeostasis

What is each person 
Given: to opportunity, pah!
To merit, scalderdash! To
Liberty merely defined 
in negative terms, 
disgustation! What one 
May do comes down 
To what may be done
In reality, not possibility.
Ye pragmatists, ye who 
Claim to love projects 
And progress and compound in
Terist, your ignorance is
Astonishing when it comes to
How freedom is converted
From barriers' lack to
A ripe leap into actual clouds.
