smokescreen

Bookmark
Summary:
dealing with death
mesmerized in the terrorized noise
by the smokescreen assaulting me
raped vision I will never unsee what I've seen here

some depravity sprinkled with beauty
sleepwalking in the forgetfulness
amazed and dazed by the stars

looking everywhere but at the hidden tares
obvious horror makes me blanch
my soul backs out quickly with a prayer
don't let that happen to me

think about it I don't care how rich you are
misfortune can come for you too
in the deafening silence I ponder death

given a bad diagnosis I sit and wait
trying to live as always but my body is winding down
with thoughts of who will be there to greet me when I die?

solice in a moment then fear, I don't know
incredilous to be sure
like I can control it either way

will I be welcomed?
will I go fighting and clawing if it turns out God is an asshole?
am I a powerful being?
will fighting do any good?

worried, this won't be pretty or easy
never one to accept death as an answer I wait
arms flexed ready to revolt
a warrior of old released at last
