A Blue Boy's Lament
When I was young my world
revolved around
FaMiLY
When I grew older my world
my world c

I saw cruelty in its rarest
form
When I grew up my world
my world was CONSTRAINED by the WICKED
and I learned
m-e-r-c-y
When I became a man my world
my world was different.
I learned kindness
I saw – through these yellow eyes -
Peace.
I felt through this blue skin
love.
Then yet again my world
my world
crumbled.
These blue stitches came
they came undone.
And now I lay
I lay alone
b l e e d i n g
B r E a T h I n G
while the WICKED
consume.
