Atef Ayadi - I Like Being Rejected

I have been
Defected
Inflected,
Affected,
Injected,
Corrected
Inspected,
Neglected,
Objected,
Ejected,
Selected,
Subjected,
Suspected,
Rejected,
For decades;
I like that.


I am vaccinated now
With the latest
Human attitude virus,
Against pride,
Love's flu, and
The ego's Asthma.

Now,
I feel baked,
Bleached,
Grilled,
Cooked,
Connected, and
Protected.

Atef Ayadi
