The lonely obese alcoholic

I'm a lilly, dancing in the rain
to the tune of the passing wave
in the middle of the ocean
I'm too small to feel earths motion
in my oblivion-in my own world,
I am my companion
and under no one's decree.
I'm a bumble bee yet on a buzzing spree
living on nectar free
I worry not about the calorie
contempt in round me
and when crucifying voices ring
well behind me is a powerful sting
yet inside me is life's so sweet.
I'm a firefly bumping into the grass
and every single night lands into a glass
I find my way home
in my staggering flight
and with my dimming light
I see the beauty inside
tell me, why should I be caged?
