They had their adventures.,
Stolen from me
Because every history teacher will tell you not to repeat history
When I have costly dentures,
You’ll still be polluting the planet
With your fossil fuel consuming machines
Let me have MY own fun alone
Stretching my wings; You banned it!
You cautiously clipped ‘em right off
It was all for me; Done in the name of love
You did it out of worry
Keep me in the bubble, thought you fed me through a trough
Pruned wings reality
And lately you’re mad at me for not flying
You held me back with the help of English
Your impeding knives are the cause of my brutality
Will my feathers solder themselves back to-get-her to get him?
If they do, I will fly free
I want to go higher than my far mates have gone
No one claps as my light grows dim
I hope to have lungs that breathe in space
Break out of this soon slow to die universe
Where nothing will exist
Not your face
My soring muscles have taken shape
They hurt my back
Now people can’t see my incomprehensible story
I should wear a cape,
To hide my bald, ugly duckling wings
I plucked them myself; Aren’t you proud?
“Safety comes first”
The raw, tender pain still strikingly stings
