To me life, writing, and poems like this should have a circular weirdness to them.. enjoy! |
-You There- by Keaton Foster You There Lunacy Not denied Nor sparred Hear Understand Take it in Make it yours You’ll think I’ll just assume That I am mad Quite insane But in fact It is you Not me That is crazy Plainly insane Pseudo lazy A vulture Upon a carcass Mine To be exact Picking up The pieces Of what You need And leaving What you don’t Behind You there Modesty Not squared Hypocrisy Ensnared Do what you’ve Come to do Hurry it up Take everything Leave nothing For those Coming next They would not Under any circumstance Do anything different They would Without question Pick both My mind And these bones Consuming All that is Without question Digestible Their guts Are bulletproof They can Stomach much Deep In their bowls All that I am And ever was Would stew Only The passage of time Would lend them relief From all that I mean So please You there See what I see Feel these lines Take them in deep Consume my flesh And my meat Stuff your gut Become so full Upon the knowledge Consumed Become sick Become ill Let it all stew Rot away In the pits Of your own pain But unlike me Before it’s too late Find the means To escape Once outside Unlike those Confined inside Hold them hostage Over these ideas Allow nothing That I’ve ever said To change you From all That you’ve been Or will ever be You there A parasite Not denied Nor sparred Suckle Upon these lines Bite down Upon each verse Chew Spit And repeat All that you wish Do what you can To take knowledge From all that I Have ever penned A vicious circle Such as this Requires that all parties Are duplicitous… You There Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2015. |
