Conservation of Energy

Written as part of the Malaysian Poetry Writing Month.

Today, I managed to define energy

They called me smart
I was a lazy ass
I was in an accident
As I couldn't drive
I was waiting for grandma
For a long time
She came
Grandma drove me to the hospital
A kind girl with a wedding ring in the car
I said hi
We fell in love

Grandma had difficulties driving
Me and the girl carried grandma
To the back seat
I drove, slowly
The girl's boyfriend came over
With his new car
He let me drive his car
So I did
I had trouble controlling the wheel
I swerved
I swerved so hard I became smarter
And I developed a machine
With tentacles
And the tentacles hammered the car
The boyfriend was shocked
He died

The girl was furious
She chopped me into pieces
With a butcher knife
I was diced but I still had emotions
My ghost was alive
I haunted her
And she realized I was important
Because I developed a machine
With tentacles

Grandma praised me
