A Body Without Organs
I have no heart,
so in love I will never take part.
I have no feet,
So in sports I don’t compete.
I have no tongue.
From me, no songs will be sung.
I have no teeth
So to my stomach there is nothing to bequeath.
I have no bowel.
So to eat food would be more so foul.
I have no ears.
I cant hear you when you shed your tears.
I have no nose.
I can’t comprehend the lilac or the rose
I have no genitalia.
Therefore, I can’t provide children for ya.
I have no eyes to see.
So I can’t perceive ways to live in society.
I have no brain.
So. therefore I am insane.
And it is because I am crazy,
that I am relegated to writing poetry.
I case you didn't pick up on the hyperbole, I am actually not certified crazy ;)
