All that I am and all that I have done will be spread far and wide. |
- To The Sea, To The Sky- by Keaton Foster Upon thy spine Troublesome This time I won’t survive The end result Of who I am What I’ve done Has come clear To the sea To the sky Vermin Buzz me by Waiting Upon demise Knowing Something That I didn’t Until now They’ll eat me Consumable Is all flesh Digestible Everything else Is at best I’ll be scattered Separate matter Never again Identifiable As part Of who I am A man of sin Broken Again A man of needs Met Via grief Insane At times Inspired At all others I see darkness Just as I see light There are shades On many In the middle Between living And dying There is beauty But just as so There is ugly To the sea To the sky Spread Far and wide Meat and flesh Bone broken Raised to Heaven Then dropped Further shattered To get at the marrow What’s inside Is most delicious Parts of me These words I ask you to feast There will be Without question Nothing left Except for them Take what you wish Forget my intent See beyond the lines Make up your own Reason and rhyme To the sea To the sky Everything spreads Far and wide… To The Sea, To The Sky Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2015. |
