You add salt on where you bleed
Then you scream and you weep
You blame the world when you got hit
But did you look before you leap?
In your heart you sprout a black seed
The pains of failure are in the creep
Before you begin you start to quit
Yesterday’s foul breath still you keep.
The black seed grows and consumes you deep
Why do you hate when it’s your choice to sleep?
A barrage of needles under your feet
Acupuncture reverses and hurts in heaps.
Like a bat blinded during a night trip
By the darkness so bright you failed to peep
Happiness is in all that you meet
Wake up, rinse your mouth and remove the black seed!
