Mr. Fahrenheit
Arman Hoque 1977 (Winnipeg)
Mr. Fahrenheit
I’ve got a fever, maybe a couple of degrees;
My brain starts to swell, intensifies what it sees.
My mind starts racing, my mouth starts moving,
My feet start pacing; My anchor I’m losing.
I’m getting high on reality,
A unique probability.
I talk when I’m scared,
Nervous or prepared.
I’m going on at a million miles per hour;
I’ll suck life’s lemon till sweet turns to sour.
Call me Mr. Fahrenheit;
The Irish call this shite.
Perplexed is the train with no track to ride;
reflected is the line of thought caught in a stream.
One voice among many, yearning to scream.
I’m a million degrees; burning up inside.
I’ll walk the walk and talk the talk,
I’ll always be ready for the fight…
Just call me Mr. Fahrenheit.
