I actually prefer the stuff that doesn’t tell me elephants
Cried in French even though I only speak English parrots
I want to turn love to naked life juice 
There is no point pretending I am a robot 
In fact the only way to tell now 
Is through wrinkles and scribbles and fear 
Please spare me tragedy for one more year 
I just sliced a pear 
Today I learnt that the body doesn’t have a soul 
The soul has a body
