Beautiful butterfly with Bumblebee best friends Gliding gracefully through Meadows of mesmerizing marigolds. Forever, it seems. But one day the flowers turn into intruding hands Fumbling fingers feel those frantically flapping wings They hold down your heartbeat. Beat. Beat. Beat. Primitive ****** pin down the perfect purple of your freedom They tore off your true pride Ripped away those wonderful wings And left without saying good bye. Your abdomen now abstract, those arrogant hands smashed all you ever had You're forced to face this friendless place Even the flies turn you down. Because, after all, where is the beauty in a wingless butterfly?
