BLUE
Exhale for the first time in centuries;
I am nauseas to the touch.
Sun is just another star to me;
Do they think that they are bright?
Not every cloud has a silver lining...
Hey shiny! Would you please move out of the way!?!
Breathe in some stale pollution
and some rare human kindness;
Ask why-
And the reply?
Likely "I don't know."
Say my prayers
not my explanations;
Pay my dues
not your charity;
Give an inch...
Run a mile without water
on a hamster wheel
just to take a breath
- to keep from turning blue.
I am nauseas to the touch.
Sun is just another star to me;
Do they think that they are bright?
Not every cloud has a silver lining...
Hey shiny! Would you please move out of the way!?!
Breathe in some stale pollution
and some rare human kindness;
Ask why-
And the reply?
Likely "I don't know."
Say my prayers
not my explanations;
Pay my dues
not your charity;
Give an inch...
Run a mile without water
on a hamster wheel
just to take a breath
- to keep from turning blue.
