Poem

I got bored, so I decided to write a poem. Hey, it can't be any worse than me singing "Fake Plastic Trees" way off pitch... some of you have been lucky enough NOT to hear that...

"The Lonely Firsts"



Lonely is the first flower to blossom
In the cold frozen field when the spring thaw is young
Lonely is the first ray of sun
To dare to penetrate the grim cloak of the dark
Leaving the world in awe

Lonely is the first denizen
To explore beyond the membrane of society’s collective mind
Lonely is the first soldier
To rise from the ashes of war and find…

Find what?
There, my lonely readers,
Is the reason
The first are always the pioneers
Seeking, peeking, searching,
For the future,
For it is they who pave the way for others.

I would rather be a first lonely, than a last. 

This poem has been brought to you by (drumroll please)... ZERO!!! Subscribe, folks! I'll be here for infinity, or at least I will in some parallel universe...
