Birthday

 I was born at the day of now

Around 10pm as my flight is

He said we are like eagles in the sky

Calm and composed ready for a dive

And I mentioned it to my dog

36 years of dog years is not a lot

The splash of perfume when the eyes met

The subtle smile of it can go on

Kneeling down to the garbage bin as she was

For the collectors to keep us tidy and nice

The mother who was sitting infront of me

made me think of her, that face, those eyes

Her name still resonates in my head sometimes

But today I felt like her kid needed her more than I

The immigrant who worked for her for this whole time

Showed me the respect I deserved but not through her mouth

Poison was her name, the kind left on the meat when it is outside

I made the best food with my unfrozen meat this week

I wouldn't say it was the most well done

To drink the cup of poison if it is supposed to

be lethal as it should

The food was great, so much protein in it and I

had it with patience and left it when I was done

Poison is ineffective when the meat is seared and I

Have seared the brown of it in my grilling pan

Then I sat outside, after 36 dog years has passed

Looked and saw the people are still around

Girls are still outside

With their curves and cheeks and the red lips as they shine

The grudge is gone baby the grudge is gone

And I have nothing to say but 

You made my day and I will be born tonight
