A somewhat crazy poem full of deep ideas and concepts for you to wrap your head around.

-Let Forever Drag You Down-
by Keaton Foster
*Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5*


Upon a leash
Animated meat
Human
Is the being
So all of us believe
So all of us pretend
Except the master
The one with his hand
Upon the strings
To him alone
We are just a thing
In a world
Of so damn many
A sin created in jest
A wickedness in this Eden
He has made a mistake
Grave to us
Are the consequences
Standard has become
All that he practices
No longer does he
Lament what he has done
Or what he must do
We, us, you and me
Are alive
While waiting on death
Visiting doom
Testing the waters
In the shallowest of pond
Beneath is the darkness
Way below our feet
Down there in the dirt
Terrible things are kept
Truths better left
Lies obviously spent
We all will go
Finding us a home
In such a wilderness
Of unknowns
In a space since sown
Upon our flesh
Disgustingness will feast
Delicious will be the dish
They will be content
Far more than us
For it’s one
Then every other next
And they
Those so consuming
Know it
Our souls
Homeless without bones
Will become slaves
To the concept
Of sink or swim
Some will reach
A version of utopia
Others will descend
Into a nothingness
All-encompassing
Only the living
Will remain between
Some
Wondering why
Dare by asking
How come not me
Why am I so lucky
Never will any answer
Serve a finite purpose
If they find one
Just as quick they’ll lose it
They’ll never be content
They’ll never understand
Further will they swear
Their allegiance
Additionally adding
To such preponderance
God be divine
Blessed are those
The reasonable madmen
Turned into blithering fools
To them I’ll always say
Let forever drag you down
Let it take you where it must
Let what’s left go where
Such things are meant to be
Only after such a point
Will you know
And understand
Where it is you belong…
