I Stand Alone
A weird poem about standing alone in a world that sometimes does what it can to move past.

-I Stand Alone- by Keaton Foster

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


This world
Does not know
That I stand alone
Without consideration
Devoid of all intention
A carelessly planned ascension
Has taken place.

I am the bottom rung
Of a ladder to outer space
Below me is the past
Above is everything
Limited by absolutely nothing
A blank canvass called oblivion.

People are sure that I have all that I need
And all that I could ever want
They whisper behind my back
Acutely aware, I hear what they say
They seem jealous of me
How weirdly preposterous it seems
They want what they assume is mine
For themselves and I am sure that
They will do anything to get it.

Just despite, I will not give it to them
Not without a hell of a fight
Not a battle of fist, weapons, and blunt instruments
But a war of words and cleverly crafted ideals
That is how I fight my battles
That is how I will take them back down a notch.

I will kick their ass
Up one side of the page
And down the other
I will beat them to a bloody pulp
Then just before they succumb
To the grievous injuries inflicted
I will stop and say to them
In the most sincere way possible
That I stand alone…
