Analysis of What crime did i do?



What crime did i do? I am in a body that passes gas and has indigestion.    We live we bleed and get murdered.    To live in this frail flesh  watch it do things i have little choice. To be hungry when i dont want to eat. To have urges i have no wish to do. To have wear clothes because im cold. To have to wear clothes because my nudity offends them. To wear this flesh and have others tell me i cant sit there or when i need to relive this form i cant do that. Only where they say wont offend them. What crime did i do?
