Your life is chance not choice
Did you choose your parents
Or the country to which you were born
Did you choose to be a boy or a girl
Were you blue eyed or green
Are you black or white or maybe chinese
Are you gay or are you straight
Or maybe none of these
Are you a cat or a dog
Or even a tree
Did you choose to be
A brilliant mathematician
Or the most creative of artist
Or perhaps you were
Endowed with these
your strengths and your weaknesses
What are your malformities
Do you have
One arm or two
And both of your feet
Are you rich or are you poor
Hungry or well fed
Did you choose happenstance
Or have you just made the best
Of these
You may sow your fortunes
And sadnesses
But the winds of fate
Are Rather not chosen but given
…..
So what would you be ?
