18+ Some days I just like to write completely insane poems, this is one such poem. |
-Of My Peers- by Keaton Foster Of my peers In awe of you Dare I stand How do you do it I really don’t know How could I ever I won’t In silence I watch Amazed As you bullshit Your way through life Accepting things as is Refusing to question Even the most basic Ideological pretenses You wage no wars Fight no battles Purely a pacifist Oh so contagious Lemmings In lines of plenty Wait to be infected Thus be digested But not me Putrid pleasantries aside I’m more Than you can stomach Your gut Holds only so much If everyone else is caviar Then I am ramen noodles Foul is my flavor Satisfying never Only used is circumstances Where currency is lacking Of my peers Reality not quite clear Words are weapons But there is no bout No obfuscation Just utter acceptance Those you mentally fondle Are deserving as much Those you find sexual Are ignorant sheep Willing to find meaning Where there is none But not me All of my orifices Are dangerous encampments Increasingly occupied By my ever-widening Mindscape Each detail is harsh Never dismal My wit and ways Legions beyond most My poetic prowess I’m go ahead and say Epic Of my peers I stand alone Not because I’m better But rather because I’m overtly different Where you and they See one finite thing I see and understand And infinite amount Of vastly more complex Strategies needed to be Put into correct place As was said In awe of you Dare I stand How do you do it I really don’t know How could I ever I won’t In silence I watch Amazed As you bullshit Your way through life Accepting things as is Refusing to question Even the most basic Ideological pretenses Of my peers Seemingly I’m nowhere near… Of My Peers Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2015. |
