A Crazy Boyfriend
A crazy Boyfriend I have
one time he invited me
for birthday party.
I entered the room
but no welcome from his mouth.
Another guest came in
and sat on a chair.
To the ground
he was thrown by host.
Workmate handed over a gift
but he rejected saying;
“Today I am a baby only
a few hours old-
a complete baby in time I am.
I want to feel once again
in this crazy and boring world
a baby a few hours young.
Babies do not talk.
You come and sit on the chair!
Babies are too young
to sit on a chair.
You bring me a suit
as my birth-day gift;
babies cannot wear suits.
I wanted only babies-
babies of my age to come.
Together we want joy in silence
and tell our own stories by miming
about what we have seen
in this crazy world.
those who come should bring me
only baby things”.
