extremely edgy poem experiment inbound lol:

---

You and me,

We're floating in a dream,

Man above machine,

We sink.

---

Fish in a barrel,

Down to our marrow.

Our cycles of thought,

Crushed and rot.

We sink.

We sink.

---

Our porcelain shells,

Our lonely vales,

We pull ourselves in,

We lock ourselves out.

Why stay here,

If life means death,

Why do we pray,

Before our last breath.

We just sink.

---

We are messengers,

We are light.

The shadow in our heads,

A sickness and a blight.

Hidden in silence,

Crying in bed,

A Father waits,

Hands on his head.

For he already knows,

His world is dead.

---

We travel and we see,

For one life we live,

Each one is free,

Each one will give.

A purpose is granted,

To those who accept,

A life well lived,

Is worth the trip.

---

We sit on our thrones and think,

Of God and of Man and of things,

We remember that in the end,

We all sink.
