Why?

Why did it have to be this way?
Why did the wind blow the other way?
Why can't things go my way?
For once, just for one-tenth of once.

Is this a big deal?
No, most would say.
Get over it, and grow up.
Yea. Only if you could feel what i do.

Enough with the bull.
Enough with the chicken.
Enough with the pig.
(Although it's mighty tasty roasted.)

The truth will save you.
The truth will shave you.
Bare of any pretences.
Slick and shiny and free of the world.

I remember simpler days.
Looking up at the sky and dreaming.
Of what could be and what might be.
Wow - has that just slipped away?

Someoday.
One day.
In the future.
Or now.

It's all up to us.
