The Wings of a Fly

Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zap

in the corner of my eye I see a fly 

buzzing by near to my eye

making me sigh as it flies by

wings rushing towards the sky

flying away from my eye

soaring high for a fly

why oh why does it want to die
flying so high in the sky
does it cry for the other fly

that did die when it flew

into my eye

I swatted that little black fly

who flew in my eye
that did defy and deny

her right to fly

by buzzing by my eye
causing the little fly to die

never saying good-bye to you
who flies so high away

from my eye towards the sky
crying for the little fly

who in suicide succeeded

in her wish to die
by flying in my eye

I sigh from the sty

that's in my eye from that fly

who flew in my eye
wondering why she wanted to die
never hearing her cry for it was you

that made her want to die

by seeing through your lie
about an affair with another fly

leaving her high and dry
to explode and die

in my teary eye

who do you cry for

as you fly towards the sky
away from my accusing eye

for your sin of deceit and lust

where my eye holds her

remaining dust
for it was not I who made her die

it was you who led her in my eye

you who were once a mighty fly
turn away from the sky

set your wings on downward path
cleanse yourself from damnation's wrath

now it’s time for you to die

fly oh fly in my other eye

 

I weep

as I wait

for your reply

 

Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Plop
