"For Seed to Keep" Jimmy the Poet

Pulped Poetry. This poem illustrates the need for a purpose, a person, anything to believe in, when it seems like the entire world is a mystery. This poem symbolizes the speed in which each generation passes, and the only thing that a person wants to be certain of on their dying day is the knowledge that someone else will always remember them.

For Seed to Keep
by: Jimmy Phillips

Oh Jesus
I don't believe in you
but I know I believe in something

Oh prophet
I don't need a message
I need to run
Write and sing

Oh me
I need to feel
Breathe and eat

If this is it
At least what does it mean?
I'm sorry
I'm scared
Don't tell me

If ignorance is bliss
I'd rather live as a blind man
Than be proven wrong since I began

If I never understand
Then let me love
Naive man I am
Ants in dust I am
Let my love overwhelm and fill them

And from this earth
May one tiny seed
Grow into a tree
And remember me

Only then my life complete
Oh you
You need to feel
Breathe and eat
And my love will stay for seed to keep
