To Everyone (and the future most likely)

Audio: "To Everyone (and the future most likely)," read by Ryder Kereopa
Hear the clock ticking down the hours
until the end’s upon the flowers
and all the grass that takes this world.
“Stop writing, leave yourself unheard.”
The rhythm, rhyme, that surely stop—
we’re looking past the wretched clocks
and know we’re diving into hell.
“Sit down and just enjoy the bells.”
You think this poem will preserve the breeze,
preserve the dark and oaky trees,
the snakes that like to bicker, hiss
“We're stopping you, please don't do this.”
Write your emotions, fears, beliefs,
engrave them onto paper sheets.
Fight the abyss others often gaze
“Enjoy the light these stars have made.”

Wow..just wow. Ridiculous words I know. I just stumbled across your poem as this is my first time on the website and I landed this masterpiece. As an immigrant myself, I could relate to several aspects of this. Your use of imagery, symbolism, and allusion is outstanding

Powerful. Spreading the truth some don't think about, some don't have to worry about. A great and strong piece.
