Darkest Thoughts

Darkest Thoughts

A Poem by Kenneth The Poet
"

Not as eloquent as some of the dark pieces I've read on here

"

Men have penned their darkest thoughts

And they don't care about getting caught

 

They embrace the completing darkness

And every bit of its glorious starkness

 

Because it loves them like a beneficent God

Men love their sin, which isn't all that odd

 

Men will destroy the entire planet

Just so nobody else can have it

 

Just so we can swim in the lake of fire

Because our essences will never expire

 

And so we continue down the destructive path

And care not about a righteous, fiery wrath

 

What's the point if we recreate Taylor's war

Where tearing off body parts evens the score

 

The base, evil creature always takes over

And we treat others like the stray dog Rover

 

Civilization is simply a myth

Once the electric flow quits

 

You see why we embrace the void

It's a fate we cannot really avoid

Human's become very primitive when civilization changes to the wildness that was known in the past..........look at what happens when natural disasters strike. This alone proves the point.
