Call My Body a Corpse(Please?)

Call My Body a Corpse(Please?)

A Poem by Jenni Bailey

Call My Body A Corpse

Jenni Bailey

My body was bought, but can't afford

My body is stiff as a board

My body was created by my then-called Lord

My body carries a ''disease''

Cerebral Palsy. Yes...everyone sees

Call my body a corpse, Please

Cerebral Palsy is demanding

My body holds a misunderstanding

My body begs for a soft landing

Call my body a corpse

Because my body withholds such force

So when I die, I have control

Only when my body has taken it's toll

Cerebral Palsy steals the body, but not the soul
