let us grow wings
fly to the clouds and beyond
soar more than the eagle
then thunderously fall from the sky

let’s run through the forest
lay in the cold bed of green grasses
swim and laugh while floating on the blue sea
swing from the highest with torsos bare

let’s take a break from reality
delete old repugnant customs
cast our nets to harness new possibilities
our now world needs to rebrand

let us get high
swing from the chandelier with grace
laugh until our stomach hurts
smile at the slightest hint

for as the days swiftly passes
grieve melts happiness away
sorrows knocks doors without invitations
life itself is a poor actor
