Another Becoming
1.
I don't like
What you're changing me to be
I was fine
Except, obviously, I was not.
I don't like
What you're changing me to be
A ghastly form
I'm not at home in
Two steps away
From who I am today
And crost a wide, uncanny valley
2.
All I can do is teach
And if not that
All I can do is pantomime
A doleful drama
Except it's real and it's mine
All I can do is sing aloud
The song of my heart
As it searches, searches
For home as the dove cast out
To find anew
The place to which it must always return
But never possess
3.
Find whatever music you can
You'll get no more from me
