Poison [May 15, 2016]A Poem by Dillan CourtrightThe heartless wind blows Upon this desolate land of snow In his heart, he feels the frozen cold In his mind, devastation has been foretold
In the barren landscape of rotting decay Countless bodies are buried in gray He has foreseen mankind led astray Caught in their greed, now they must pay
Thundering storms tear apart this world of misery Searing winds destroy all the world in it’s agony In fiery explosions the world is coated in debris And in the end, all is swallowed by the raging dead sea
In this wasteland, he stands upon the highest mountain He watches the world below, as all is slowly forgotten He stands alone, within his quiet isolation Clouded in grief, all becomes lost in eternal damnation
Opening his enlightened eyes, he finds himself shaking He stands there alone, and cries in all his frustration Mankind has long been lost, fools who will never listen Only now does he realize, this is only the beginning
All of mankind will wither away to nothing Forever, they will fade from what is coming He has foreseen the end, it cannot be avoided At long last, all will be freed from poison © 2017 Dillan Courtright |
