Stalking Butler

-Stalking Butler-
by
Keaton Foster



Here I come
Like a stalking butler
Bringing you what you need
Some food for thought
A copious amount of ideas
A caustic amalgamation of rhetoric
All meant to cause you to question
Everything you see and know
Feeding your ravenous brain
At the expense of my own
Showing you more
Than you wish to see
Taking you to the edge
Of an ever-darkening abyss
Ready to push you over if need be
I am certainly not afraid
Of the impact of my words
But you should definitely be
I have always been unconcerned
With regard to myself
Self-service does not apply
This is about serving you
And this world that we
You and I both call home
A prison for our minds
Within a prison of our time
Impossible to escape
Many monumental doors
Stand in our way
There are no keys
Because there are no locks
To open any one of them
Would take every being alive
A unified front against realty
Such reality is defined by us
You, me, everyone, everything
It is the hallmark of our species
I show it to you with words
Cramming it down your throat
Screaming, suffocate or survive
Either way, you will be changed
I will only stop when the
Insatiable appetite of humankind
Is without question satisfied
When you feel unlike before
Then I will have served you
As well as served myself
Like a stalking butler
Bringing you what you need
Even if you aren’t asking
Fastidiously I work on each detail
Without regard for the impact
Of this life that I am living
There can be nothing less
Then the everything both you and I
Are undoubtedly meant to share…
