I Am Just A Fly
Found on Page 48 in La Shawna- Release The Energy Within
I wish I could be a fly on the wall
Seeing it all
And my only advice would be the flapping of my wings
As I sit on my throne
Watching daily human interactions
Let’s see who my first victim is
I swarm the heads of many
Who have died
By the hands of nuclear weapons
The stench is pungent
It contaminates my wings
Making me see the damage immensely
The pain
A mother wailing
Trying to find her loved one amidst the rubble
Her two hands blood stained as she lifts pieces of rubble twice her size
The pain does not matter she find him at all costs
I wish I could help her but I am just a fly seeing it all
I am a fly
With big eyes
And I witness
It all
I see my Islamic brothers and sisters
Crying and begging for someone
To
Save them from the hands of those
Who do not care about their life
A tear escapes from my eyes
Clouding the massacre
I wish I could save them
But what can I do
I am just a fly looking in
If only I had super powers
That I could become a man
And do the good Lord’s plan
Saving others
And loving them like myself
Then I would cause many to soar
And fly above the great beyond
But I only have the quality to report what I see
Stupse I am only a fly
A mere insect
I would make so much of a difference if I could become a man
Please choose me
I beg to be more than a mere fly
I see myself making a huge difference in my life
I am just a mere normal fly
That people try to spray
Constantly as I am a humbug they say
But really I am trying to bless them with my wings
Show them a new way
That me a fly am protecting them
Yet their spray causes me to run away
I am just a fly
But I have so much to say
I am a fly
I am accepting it
This fly that sees it all from above
The fact that we do not know how to show brotherly love
As we must reap the most material awards
Before we go heaven
Therefore we do not care about anyone
Not even the poor and suffering
As we trample upon them in our quest to be wealthy
Their problems and their agony we are blind to see
Well that is everyone except me
As I the fly see it all
The big and the small
As I am just a mere fly up here on the wall
I know I am a fly
An insect
But before I leave
I want you to question this
How many of you are just like me
Wanting to help those but cannot find a way to make them see
That no matter how small our gestures may be
We can all make a change
Even me the fly
And that makes me smile
Up and down my wings!
