Human Grocery Store
An odd poem about life and death that I could not get out of my head, so I wrote it out.

- Human Grocery Store- by Keaton Foster

*Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5*

Meat
Bone
Skin
Home
Life and death
All beginnings
Sadly, must end
Fear nothing
Do not be concerned
You will not know
How could you
Reduced to refuse
No one will consume your truth
They will not want to know
Your secrets will keep
Forever is a hell of thing indeed
They will place you in a box
Deep into the ground you will go
Eternal transcendence
Creatures of the end
Will feast
Their stomachs can handle much
You will not poison them with
All that once made you human
They will never stop eating until
Your bones are picked clean
Fear nothing of them
And their ravenous need
The soul you sold will escape
Where will it go
I dare not speculate
Because mine still remains
Within this body that I know
One day will be consumed
Such is our doom
In this human grocery store
Of all existence
Carrion is not selling
Our fellow kind will only dine
Of the presently living
Such all-consuming bastards
They are never satisfied
Their bellies are over full
The gluttonous nature of their ways
Compels them beyond kindness
They dare not nibble
They only bite
With teeth…
