Perfect Blue

It’s a cloud pushing itself upwards that pushes me
out and up into the world
I was put here to teach you jedi mind tricks
and that the sky is the one perfect blue

Little boys and girls made to sit neatly in rows, told not to fidget
when fidgeting is fuel and fire and LIFE!
Big boys and girls made to sit squarely in cubicles, told to bend the rules
when they’ve learned to do things “right” no matter what

Right hand sparks a sun, left one grasps it
snuffs out the light, and now
you tell me:
What do you see? Who do you trust?
Who and what do you need?

You either tell me or I tell it to the world.
