The Reason

As if being down-to-earth

is diminishing our souls

as if it was an insult to us

to degrade to the earthiness and materialism

myopic day-to-day

no, we can’t live like that

but what are the alternatives

only to daydream

in a confused fantasy

the option is the inability to be free in this unfreedom

cause we were not born rich

cause the Russians took our things

and killed our souls with stones
