Stuck In An Unearthly Riddle

Life is harsh
Mind and body, so brittle
How on earth did I get stuck
In this unearthly riddle?

How in the world
Did something so big
Get trapped inside
Something so little?

Did I choose to forget?
To be trapped in this shithole?
I do love apples,
And all that forbid them

Perhaps that’s the curse
Being stuck in the middle
With a halo and horns,
A lyre and a fiddle

Lulling myself to sleep
Singing, “Hey Diddle Diddle”
Stuck here on earth
In this unearthly riddle
