A rooster crows…
(
Standing
I am the floor, the wall, the door
I look around to see what’s more
Stepping
I am the cart, the coins, the shade
I try to reach beyond the cage
Walking
I am the mud, the dirt, the sand
I tighten the grip of my dirty hands
Running
I am the shout, the noise, the route
I’m desperate to find a way out
Stumbling
I am old, sick and hungry
I lie on the floor sad, grumpy
Falling
I am disabled, handicapped, imprisoned
I clasp my hands, hoping, praying, and begging for reasons
Dying
I am you, I am me, I am god
I am your mother, brother, sister, father
I am your enemy, your lover, your friend
I am who you want me to be…
Please, give me a hand
And the sun rose…
