SKELETONS

A Poem by "K"

this was inspired by the relationship between life and death, the way of the world and the cruelty of it all

SKELETONS

Scythe slice the air
eyes fill with fear.
For you know he's here
he's in the noise you hear
there's nowhere to run, there's no place to hide for he's everywhere

Orphans carry coffins
to bury tomorrow sorrow to follow
hearts are hollow so we swallow the blue pill to kill how we feel
but we can't kill what hides in the closet or who lurks in the street
so we decide to close it and just dance to the beat

SKELETONS IN CLOSETS

We just animals , cannibals at Hannibal's dinner table
living a fable
crabs in a barrel
blind men in battle, when the dust settles you'll see that you fought for little while men in the middle gain wealth off your health
a life for oil underneath the soil
but you still think your diamonds are harmless though you've seen a picture of a kid who's armless

Scythe slice the air
eyes fill with fear.
For you know he's here
he's in the noise you hear
there's nowhere to run, there's no place to hide for he's everywhere
