1: What was
The reminiscence of what was.
He and little Mable, dear, with fiery ginger hair, out of line and out of whack,
are all that's left.
The land is barren, oozing of radiation from nuclear missiles, and the bittersweet smell of napalm of a war that shouldn't have been.
There is no one.
There is no one;
forced into isolation and forced to remember what was.
Salad Fingers was forced to forget that all was lost
and all that was
is no longer around.
Mr. Branches will not grow, Salad Fingers,
like he did every spring
and fall apart during the fall season.
Your daughter Yvonne will not return to hug and kiss you,
and tell you that she is pregnant with Jeremy's baby.
Marjory will not come for that one visit every month to see her beautiful baby girl Yvonne.
Though it was never for you, you were still so happy to see her, weren't you, Salad Fingers?
Marjory loved you, as you do for her, but your obsession drove her away.
Salad Fingers, your brother Kenneth won't come back from the trenches.
He's long gone lost.
The land that was, is barren
only holding up a single shack.
Where one lonely man lives
to only remember what was,
and not what is.
The lonely man who's been forced into insanity
and forced to play pretend for all eternity.
I finished watching Salad Fingers yesterday, and I'll honestly tell you all that I felt really sad. When I saw Salad Fingers crying in the eighth episode, I felt like crying too. When I saw him break down to Mable speaking, I felt scared. That guy is really creepy and I'm not up to having any dreams involving him being the way he is, but there was something about him that made me pity him.
There needs to be another episode of Salad Fingers. There needs to be more FanFictions of him too. He's just too good to be turned away.
Any way, I hope you guys enjoy my sad attempt at writing a poem. :')
Thank you for your time. C:
