Wrestling with my Purpose

Wrestling with my Purpose

A Poem by Askew

The deer knows its place in the world
It is prey, and it will never be anything more
Nature designed them that way, the deer doesn't fight nature
The deer is hunted by every creature willing to put in the effort
The meat feeds empty bellies
The bones are made into tools
The antlers decorate walls and become trophies
The pelts keep hunters warm
The deer knows it lives only to die for those that would kill it
