The Man:

Why not?

You can fly wherever you want,

Go any place you desire,

No one’s permission required,

To the beaches, to the wilderness,

You are free beyond measure,

Yet you stay,

You stay in the nasty pit,

You stay where no one desires.
 

The Bird:

Everyday, a new painting in the sky,

The stars that combined to give us a masterpiece,

The soothing sound of rain that penetrates the grass,

Gives life to all around,

Hatches of eggs, the beauty of life,

The voice of the wind whispering,

“I will take care of you,”

You do not see because you do not wish to,

You do not hear because you do not wish to,

The question comes back to you,

Why not?
