I am not PhysicalA Poem by UC PoikaEver feel aloof to this world, like your arms and legs and even brain aren't really yours but like protective gear in a radioactive tank.It was like a bird in a cage and I set it free Or the taste once in a shattered bottle of wine Or a poem I wrote that didn't belong to me After all was said and done it wasn't mine The mind of this brain is not something I own A blank page or an empty monitor's light It's more like a field in which alfalfa was grown Not the sort of thing a keyboard can write I have no arms no legs and an alien's brain For I tell it what to think and sometimes it does And others do it too but mostly they just refrain And it comes out as something I found just because I don't belong in this world like a beautiful bat But like God who knows where I'm from or where I am at? © 2014 UC Poika |
