Poem – Bucket List (By Abdulrahman Abuyaman)

Bucket List

 

before I expire,

i’d defy the laws of gravity, by

breastroking through the atmosphere,

upwards. i’ll then settle on the fluffiest of

the floating beds in the sky; sipping copiously

from my bottle of malta in high spirit. then

borrow from mr. eagle, his sharp lenses to

visualize the world from above in a new dimension.

 

before I cease to respire,

i’d orchestrate an imbalance on

nature’s law by stealing a dose of

chlorolplast from kingdom botanica. inject

it in my bloodstream to graduate to a

primary producer and gain my independence,

feeding wise. not minding the outcome of

my pigmentation.

 

before i finally retire,

i’d create and release a

hyper-contagious virus in the

global atmosphere. It disperses

with a lightning speed into respiratory

systems, inhaled subconsciously with O₂

its effect is devastating. It brings out the good in

people and suppresses the antithesis.
