POEM STARTER
Inspired by Reagan Stanton
Write a poem about decay.
Normally associated with death and disease, decay is also vital in nature for the next generation of life. What perspective will you take?
The silence of decay
Flesh melting off bones
Lights flicker and burst
Body shutting down
No one there to know
Plants withering
Dead eyes stare on
No more music
No more souls to hear it
Lifeless bodies
Hearts barely beating
Everything falling apart
What’s the point anymore
Final heart beat
Dirt absorbs your mistakes
No more breathing
Just the silence of decay
