Pressure Cooker
Pressure Cooker
Enclosed with a wrapped steeled container
Supposedly, I am born with a tag on which
Is written on, with an external guarantee
“It will not succumb to pressure, of any kind”
A warranty for life, assured by the manufacturer
I must answer and respond to all the needs
Needless to say, no matter the air pressure
Going inside my blood vessels
I will not succumb to any form of exerted force
I am a human being, considered to be a machine
I will not cede, actually, I ought not
I am required to work and live under pressure
But is really what I was begotten to do?
I give off, time to time as I feel the need
Of letting out those stiffed hot air
And cool down a bit; the antics go on
And holding the cap, while pressing hard
Life wants me back on track, back on track
No need to relax, it’s not the time for it
You still have so much to do
Restless I give in trying to cope with the stress
Under yet a torrid and suffocating condition
I want to eject part of my stress
I want to throw the towel; it’s becoming unbearable
To hold that kind of load, that kind of life
Accidentally, under tremendous strain, I explode
Taking onto everything on my path; dynamiting.
The truth is when you hardly breathe out,
Your body opts from non-violence to rebellion
