LIFE
I. Infancy
Screams & cries are signs of life
Joy accompanies the arrival of a baby
There lies Mama's little angel
A flesh of her flesh
Suddenly, components of the atmosphere are no longer Oxygen or Carbon dioxide, It is 'Peace dioxide’.
II. Childhood
Life is an exciting journey
You are breathing and living
Everything imaginable is achievable
One minute you are Superman
The next you are Snow White
There is no stopping you.
III. Adolescent
Mama becomes an enemy
Dad is a memory
Puberty strikes and like a witch,
It begins casting spells upon you:
Pubic hairs, breasts, and a deepened voice are scars from its whip In this lawless game, puberty is winning.
IV. Adulthood
Superman & Snow White are myths
Politicians, work and alcohol have replaced them
You are now breathing in pain
How did you end up in an arena with life as an opponent? Anxiety, stress and depression are new friends
You are stuck, society has you,
there is no escape.
V. Old Age
Screams & cries are signs of death.
"A beber y a tragar, que el mundo se va an acabar" Your response when asked for tips on how to survive life Dreams are now nightmares
"When I die..." is a way of talking now
"It's your turn", Death whispers
Your epitaph reads:
"Congratulations, you've completed the full cycle. Rest in Pieces."
