Ghazal


I always wanted to fly.
I ask myself, "How does it feel like when I fly?"

Would I be able to touch the sky?
It doesn't really matter- all I want to do is fly

Or maybe I can snatch away a coffee from a bald guy
and he can chase me down the street while I fly

then I will say, "Thanks for the coffee, bye bye!"
the guy would shout back at me, "teach me how to fly!"

I will have to squint my eye to see the man cry
I wouldn't be able to teach him how to fly

because I don't even know how to tie my own tie
So the man would never fly

and all his life he will sigh
However, I will learn how to tie my tie while I fly

in the hope that I will become a spy
I learned all of these to teach a man how to fly

Now let's see if he will give a try!
The first 5 times he failed to fly

He got so discouraged that he bought himself a pie
but realized there is no need to fly
