Mortal Man
The caterpillar is a prisoner to the streets that conceived it.
It’s only job is to eat or consume everything that is around it
In order to protect itself from this mad city.
While consuming it’s environment,
The caterpillar begins to notice ways to survive
One thing it notices is how much the world
Shuns him but praises the butterfly.
Mortal Man!
The butterfly represents the talent, the thoughtfulness
And the beauty within the caterpillar.
But having a harsh outlook on life,
The caterpillar sees the butterfly as weak
And figures out ways to pimp it to it’s own benefits.
Already surrounded by this mad city, the caterpillar
Goes to work on the cocoon which institutionalizes him.
He can no longer see past his own thoughts: He’s trapped!
When trapped inside these walls, certain ideas start to take root,
Such as going home, and bringing back new concepts to this mad city.
The results? Wings begin to emerge, breaking the cycle of feeling stagnant.
Finally free, the butterfly sheds light on the situations that the caterpillar
Never considered, thus, ending the struggle.
Although the butterfly and the caterpillar are completely different,
They are one and the same.
