Learn To Rot

Learn To Rot

This submission contains potentially triggering topics: Death

Deep in ocean depths,

Two divers lay burdened by tanks of steel.

The fish, uncaring of their deaths,

Are pleased by the sudden meal.

In the highest tops of mounds,

A hiker hit by heart attack leaves

Their life on the grassy grounds-

The vulture accepts and never grieves.

Alone in forest, lost and starved,

Many a person has been eaten-

In the nature their bodies carved

A chance for life to plants near beaten.

                  And so, like them, you must learn to rot

                           Of life’s many gifts, this is the most beautiful one brought.
