HOW DO I...?

 

How do I keep smiling when my eyes drowns in tears

How do I escape from this desert-cell when I can’t even

find the invincible door

 

How do I run through the memory-forest without

any exit

I’m a prisoner in my body

Golf balls in my mouth

 

I’m being punished for a crime I never committed

For years, I have been caged up.

My wings slashed off because of my enforced

body-prison

 

Songbirds sang

Butterflies danced in my lap

Still I climbed Mount Everest with four wheels

 

I leopard crawled through the landmine-obstacles

I’ve been battered and bruised still survival fizzled through my blood

 

The world judged my skeleton display

Why couldn’t they Google my mind

They gave me their artificial strawberry-judgments

 

How do I cling to a happy-ending future when nuclear bombs want

to send me back to prehistoric darkness
