Fly Away
I could just bugger off
release myself
from this body
and cruise away.
Sick of being tied down to all this stuff
keeping me here
in this artificial world
designed by men
who don't understand nature.
Or care.
I could just drift away
to a higher plane
where people were sane
and understood
about the planet, about 'stuff'
the stuff reality is made of.
Why do I stay?
it would be so easy,
I know I know how
but also -
that knowledge
ties me here
to say what it is I have to say.
