Only Rot
January 20, 2022
Everywhere he walks,
A deafening stench follows.
A smell familiar,
Yet suffocating.
A smell so bitter and sad.
The stench of death,
And the problems he's had.
He walks, and sings, and talks,
But the stench surrounds him,
Like pestering hawks.
No one else seems to know,
That this boy carries nothing but flesh,
Wherever he will go.
They pretend he's alive, all for not.
They just won't let him die!
Only rot...
