ForwardA Poem by R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Pushing onwards, humanity grows wings to fly past the timeLiving in the world you stole, taking everything at stake and, breaking what isn’t shattered, what matters, considered whole Are you shivering thirsty for the worsening the cursing, hurting, deserting, delivering the murdering of this world? Taking the natural flow and continue to go forward, life is a war word, poetry my weapon a sword by my hip, makes me feel the pressure as I drift uplifted connected by the reality hand fisted for me to live by, strive me, lie by, die by, survive while we suffer side by side in the only unity we’re aligned by, pain, a red stain to strive by with eyes on the prize, true happiness and a reason for existence, questions answered, we move forward in search of this morbid curiosity, hoping the velocity is prosperous as phosphorous lost in it continue to just move forward, through this world, this rotten mist, this god’s colossal lips I move forward, past the death, the deformations of creation. Through the thrills of elations, patience, mind chilling ruminations based in my head, been raped left for dead, but still I’ve been lead, to fight through the dread, forget what they said, hang from the thread that stitched my life back together, and cut the rope I choke on Forward, through the pain and the mess, through the world we’ve been left, the hatred we’ve kept, the eternally sleeping people leaving our breathing alone to shout in the cold, in the heat of the moment, but with your cool attitude, and this lukewarm trauma, this drama like an ensemble, as we fight our problems and move forward Move forward on the wings of times, the reasons why, the cruel goodbyes, the passage of rhymes, the passing of lives We move forward regardless, like a soldier in a war that that knows he’s going to lose, but walks towards death beaten and bruised, to finally be of some use, to not live a lie, but die for the truth We move forward, knowing people pass us by to the dark side, new ones joining the endless fight, believing in rights, reasons, excuses, purpose, looking for something meaningful, something worth it, bleeding skull, eating mind, leaving everything behind just to try to live on, to move forward To move forward and never stop walking, never stop running, never stop coming, never stop trudging, never stop crawling even if the world’s falling, not budging, we’re following our calling, our path, carving our future, don’t worry about the past in the aftermath, tutor the next line, never look back, just back in time, never to forget, but to move forward with every drop of our being, every scene in our memory, to move forward, past the walls of the cemetery, and for others to move forward for us when we have to stop, this is our dream for today, and for the future we fought © 2018 R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Author's Note
