Childhood Dreams
Anger boils inside me like magma
I always feel your cold stare
I am forever aware
of your criticism and disapproval
that you had towards
my passions, dreams and ambitions.
Ever since I was 6
and dreamt of being an astronaut
Ever since I was 8
and dreamt of being a zoo keeper
“Your ideals are invisible clouds,”
You said to me
high on your drugs
in that incredelous voice
that you have when
you feel superior to me.
You unsupportive bitch.
I never saw a problem with being
a zoo keeper on Jupiter…
