Goatman

Can't keep up

Sleep passes by

Haunted by the forest

Little pieces of sky

Land softly on the stars

Branches caress

Dead fauns

A restless wilderness

The janitor works late

Cleaning up the mess

All thats left

Are flower petals

Forbidden by men

Runing the way

It was meant to be

Seven long days

And nothing has

Been accomplished

Deemed special

Better than the rest

The bears and foxes

The seals and dolphins

Running from saws

Caught in a web of chants

They are brought to

A place

Covered in paste

Its beautiful,

Peaceful and rich

From the clouds

People look on

Rest with the intention

Of never awakening

Forced gods breath

Just in case of fire

We wait for the sun

Under the canopy of

Gas and waste

My own thoughts

No one else would think

They must become nothing

To be worth something

Scared and weak

Everyone is something

Who was born of another

Gospels sing praise of

Thankfulness

Who woulda thunk

We'd be so stupid

Building ground over

Our used consumption

Sometimes i sit

And think

And write

And lose myself

In the reality of everything

But what everyone knows

Is accepted without question.

 

To you, who has read this, i thank you.

You are very patient.

Lol.
