None chastises those who time has dealt a blow
As that like dead roots, will be low
None blames the Frankenstein monster
For attacking its master
For that, like a pie in dust, will be disaster
Oh deviants of the norm!
As the slave of “knowledge prostitution”
I say “due”
II
When the world was born
Human increment was sworn
When the world was naive
Food had its channel to itself
Who defiled the virgin time
And made it a shameless whore in our present?
Who broke into the yoke of normalcy
And redirected pestles to break through mortars’ backs?
III
We are all to blame
Enjoying the comfort in all that is lame
Refusing to look at growth’s monster
Let alone find channels to tame
Why won’t same minds electrify passions?
We are all to blame
For loving the vehicle of modernity
I say “due o due”!
IV
Let nails turn claws!
They are angelic not flaws
Let hairs turn long!
They are beauty treats not demonic
Let our young act bold and strong!
For respect’s vice of meekness is a flaw
Let all in shadows out!
Every soul must build its ark
Let all passions flow!
For every being has a thing to show
Every acceptance acted scissors and blades
To tear into space of the nature’s taboos
You are part of our reward
We are all to blame
“Due o due!”
V
As wombs stir themselves
And life givers dig rear gutters
As manly gaits rehearse the feminine
And the frail acts so tough
Every finger should point to the one in their mirror
As our every need brought this breed
