Wings

oh why , oh why can't caterpillars fly?
for within them theres a butterfly.
why if I could fly and achieve so high,
for my future would change from imprisonment or meet death and die.
so as I ask the question , oh why cant caterpillars fly?
why if it was I , id really try because in a few months my wings will arrive.
