Why
do you need
a mother and a father?
do you feel the need
to know about your
past?
What
makes you cling
so tightly to your
roots?
Don't you know:
you’re not the tree.
You’re the bird
sitting in it.
What about
living in the moment?
singing for now?
What happened to:
Maybe we’re all dead
tomorrow, so
let’s celebrate
today.
