Gone In The Wild


Depths go deeper, heights go further
Feet grows numb and visions, blurrier
Spirit departs from the soul that defied the flesh
Hands yield to an unplanned rest
Families, friends and foe feign sympathy
Agents, auctioneers and the affluent aid artificially
The mischievous sprite places the highest bid 
With stacks of cash the receiver will someday rid
As the lights go dim and unending sleep hovers
Alone lay you, stiff beneath pressed covers
Buried in thoughts, lost in mind and ambiance
A life well lived! - a cloaked stranger cries
Your stuffed weight burdens masculine shoulders 
And soon the darkness dins without repentance
Earth, air and bugs well sated
A crude warning to the newly created
As you aversely accept your decreed fate 
To be gone in the wild until due date
