A Black Pilgrim in the Land of Love
I'm like a pilgrim in this land of love,
maybe I have the wood and the cotton and the food and the water,
but who knows how to build a house anyway?
I'm sorry I've wasted our time trying to build a home with cotton cloths and leftover bread,
the wood just didn't smell right to me,
I thought to myself,
"Maybe if we..."
But that's where I should have stopped,
everybody telling me how to make a house...
"Well, maybe if I..."
That's where they cut me off,
nobody likes to make a house out of cloth and leftover bread,
they can't see the benefit of leaving the wood behind,
of making a home out things that don't make sense,
but hey, like I said,
I'm a pilgrim in this land of love,
and they just love telling me how to build my own house...

i love doing things differently, and in my opinion more functionally. Plus, I hate it when people tell me what to do without helping me. :) this is a great poem!
