Flashes lighten grime and gravy Instant when it's bright and maybe Happiness will someday bite From eating star beams in the night Crunch it chew it spit it out Strip the flesh and suck it out Between the teeth of envy plain Come bits of cosmos fire and rain Will you ever know how it feels No mother or father to depend upon Will you ever know how it feels To be alone in this world - all alone
