Poem that begins with "come with me" and ends with "Till the end".
No rules. Just a poem. And follow the prompt.
MorganGehring

Fear

Come with me,

Let us gaze upon humanity in evaluation

Let us witness the avarice in young, fiery eyes

Let us hear the cries of war

Of rage

Of desperation.

We shall witness the authenticity of souls

Although unawareness has led to exposure of hearts,

They bask in the foolish dust of unctuous locution

The clicking tongue among teeth and a braggart he became

The articulation and formation of chapped lips

Great weapon, indeed.

The Overseer meticulously watch ticking hands

Determined by only assessing and analyzing

Something is there

Beneath the shell of clammy, sanguinary hands,

Beneath the knuckles

The bones.

Beneath the sinuous ribcage

Under the victorious, ruthless desires

The reason of determined cowardness

Idly waiting beneath shimmering glass veils

Behind porcelain masks it festers

Fear enlaced in polluted words and arched brows.

Distinction between humanity and us

We feel nothing beneath our shells

No desire,

Dispassionate,

Crude and unsociable,

Lifeless and hollow.

Fearfulness slithers below the cerebrum

Receding further to unfurl corruption

It is cursed and despised as the aspect of weakness

but it is the difference between humanity

and living husks containing only ruins of once bubbling dispositions

We cannot change but they can.

Fear withstands bloodshed and abhorrence

Fear infects the mind and ceases despicable behavior

Fear is the last defense until insanity enforces itself

Insanity orchestrates annihilation of the emotions carefully protected

Numbness enters until a shell of a man alone, humanity no more

Fear the fearless man with a drive for he can do anything without internal consequence

Fear, our savior and defender fighting through twisted tongues,

Till the end.
