Where will we get
With the attack?
Will the caged bird
Finally bend the metal?
Or should it learn to pick the lock?
Where will we get
With the oppression?
Will the Princess
Be forced to use her hair?
Or be allowed to put on pants
And climb her way down?
Where will we get
With the ego?
Will the lion pounce at every chance
And fail?
Or choose wisely,
Waiting for the pride?
Where will we get
With the hate?
Will the fire burn
And become all consuming?
Or simmer only enough to warm our hands?
To cook a meal we can share?
Where will we get
If we go on like this?
Where will we get
If we don’t stop and think?
Where will we get
If we don’t take a look around?
Where will we get?
Where will we get?
