Lies Of Truth Poem by Douglas McAntagart

What is left
What is right
Words of my stupid plight
Follow light
Follow dark

Why this stupid coarse
So you can enforce
Meanings of less sense
Wrought to the presence
Listen and learn, do or die

What is life
Surely, not all suffering and strife
Happiness crumbles at my feet
Hard lonely walk down the streets
Where to go, what to do.

Do all share the same torment
Life’s dreams shatter, life’s dreams ferment
Darkness builds a cold path
Onto my aftermath.

Closed in, locked out
Till my final blackout
Deeply descending down
Smell the earth, taste the ground
Earth bound
Rotting in the ground
