Nothing Ensnared

Nothing Ensnared
by Keaton Foster




Nothing
Ensnared
Truth
Declared
Reason
Meaning
Such is
The season
Words
Weapons
Godless Gods
Unapologetic
Expressions
Telling
While yelling
Screaming
Aloud
Hear this
Feel me
Understand
What is clear
What is not
Limit nothing
Be a sponge
In a lake
Feel the weight
Know the pain
Take in
What you can
Leave out
What you must
Have no regrets
Know your limits
Between the lines
Hides
Meaning and reason
A semblance of truth
And all else that eludes
I am incapable
Of making it easy
If it were to simple
Then most everyone
Would understand
Laymen is a term
That increasingly
I am uncomfortable with
Nothing
Ensnared
Taken
Brought closer
Into view
Set upon the stoop
Waiting for you
Outside the door
Not of your home
But of your mind
Take it inside
Or leave it where it is
Such a choice
Matters most
At least to me…
