Commitment Till Death Cause the Part
Signed to dwell in a comfortable locked cage
where smoke also comes out from ice;
moving gradually, taking it page by page,
nurture the hunger then you can eat even half cooked rice.
It’s like bad costumes but in a beautiful stage
or a boring occasion, well attended by funny guys.
In comfort, in difficulty, in ecstasy and in rage,
on each others skin, seldom disturbing as lice.
A year, then some decades and the union is coming of age,
but the flavor still remains, due to the preservation of its spice.
