Life defines in Metabolism,  
In reproduction,  
we make our miniature selves,  
our look alike 
In the power of adaptation,  
like what is in now,  
What is fashionable,  
how I blend with all of you 
How I mimic you,  
how I become a clown to you,  
 
Life in being nice 
This is my life A short and a merry one 
This my life In the middle of my own life 
To life,  
a life,  
in the hope of discovering the meaning of my life,  
My speech my poetry 
Come to life with me 
To the life,  
for the life of one like me,  
Not taking this life in my own hands,  
Never,  
never,  
To life,  
this is life 
As big as life 
as large as life is large 
In resiliency,  
in elasticity 
Animations, cartooning, animate,  
I vivify 
I vilify 
I quicken 
I liken 
The life force in my life’s functions 
Drawn from life 
to life drawn 
Dream to life a life full of dreams 
This liveliness, this sparkle 
This effervescence of life,  
this bubbling life like wine 
This sprightliness like soft 
Drink like energy drinks 
This verve,  
this vigor 
this vivacity 
Of life to life as big as life 
My life 
This is my life 
This me I am life 
I am energy 
i am in this poem trying to run 
away from everything in my life,  
running in life 
to life and life,  
because of life,  
for life.
