be happy,
be happy,
be happy.
they all want you to be happy.
if you are not happy,
and if your mind
is fully occupied with a picture of a noose
hung on a ceiling fan
and you're imagining dripping blood
blib blib blib
then
apologize to your god.
and to yourself
say sorry, sorry, sorry
many a times
many, and many—
you need to
be happy
you're alive
