The Rainforest Poem by Khalid Gaston

The Rainforest



When the day is over, I see my body oh so decomposed
I decide to take one last stroll in the rainforest
There I see a spot to let myself be disposed
In a beautiful cloudy day in August

As I lay there becoming a part of nature
Seeing my bones, muscles, organs in a state that can only be described as despair
The crows wonder who created such a rupture
They pity this soul to the point they offer their god a prayer

To lay on the rainforest while the ground swallows me whole
The maggots will make a feast out of me
I become a part of the trees, completely under their control
Ilove my desintegration, i obey their decree

On this cloudy day of August where I finally get rest
I admit defeat in God's lifelong test.
