We Are

-We Are-
by
Keaton Foster



You
Me
We are
Us
Them
Who exactly
Not a clue
Why not
Because
How did we
You and me
Us
Ever get here
To this point
In this now
This moment of time
Unsure
We’ve become
What
Pondering such things
Purpose
Meaning
Reason
A never ending season
These words
Mine
Turned into
Commutative property
Powerful expressions
Of over abundance
Under the same sun
Living and dying
Preparing ourselves
A somewhat unified front
Via our consequential existence
Together we seem
Out of desperate need
When we scream wolf
In the middle of the woods
Only other wolves show up
All seeing eyes are upon us
Yet we are blind
Our Unwillingness
Will be our doom
The truth
As always
The one we won’t admit
Is that we are apart
Connected beings
Living quite disconnected
Do we
You and me
Us
Have a chance
Speculation at best
We are
In this together
Good, bad
Indifferent
We must survive
Or at least fight to
I would like to think
That such a precious gift
Won’t be wasted
And that we
You and me
Us
Will be ok
Then again
What do I know
Absolutely nothing
Most of all you…
