The Birth Certificate by AeroplaneApple: 4:06pm On Jun 03, 2021 |
When a bird is born, Suppose a chicken; What does its mother name it? Considering it might not even survive The first hawk-attack Considering it might not even survive The fangs of a snake or a rat We are all the same, Sin or sinless Hard or singlet soft, We are all the same, Struggling to survive And be known But behold! Only to realize it's a nameless future The bird has no birth certificate Nor will it get a death certificate What we have is paper Legacy is all that matters |
