We think caged birds sing,
when indeed they cry.

Birds in a Cage

"Why do you weep?" inquired the young siskin of the old,
"You're more comfortable in this cage than out in the cold."
"You were born caged," said the elder, "this was your morrow;
"I was free, now I'm caged—hence the cause of my sorrow."

Thanks, Burgundia, it is inspiring and matches with previous post.
Now, this Polish author made me to think about the great Polish director Krzystof Kieszlowsky and his movie trilogy "Three colors" (Blue, Red and White), where he "play" with three universal values symbolically: Blue=Equality; Red= Justice and White= Freedom.
Here is a piece from Three colors: White.

Two friends. One is desperate. He pays to his friend to kill him. His friend takes the money and...see how he liberate him...

And music...great piece by the genius Zbigniw Preisner!
