Attaching myself
to the clouds like velcro
if only for a moment
I could touch my dreams
but the weight of the world
had a hold on me
as I felt myself peeling away
slowly from the clouds
as I rapidly fell onto the ground
crashing bones and burning ashes
broken hands and limpy fingers
except for one
determined to touch the sky
I raised my middle finger
as I pointed up high
but the Omnipotent had other plans
as He sent a massive bolt of lightning
cutting my fnger off my hand
now I lay here dying
my dreams all in vain
closing my eyes upon this world
...it started to rain
