StillBirth

vultures circle above
marking forgotten graves
rotten stench rises
kissing fallen skies
army of the dead
suicide mission
abandoned in fields
of stripped democracy

napalm dreams
scattered fire
repelling screams
corrupted desire

unable to erase
the body count
bullets blaze
sermon from the mount
no faith here
just scorched earth
laced in fear
stillbirth

human chess exists
blood ridden lakes
venomous roads
define this map
off-balance compass
tainted grandeur
labeled truth
one man’s compromise

napalm dreams
scattered fire
repelling screams
corrupted desire

unable to erase
the body count
bullets blaze
sermon from the mount
no faith here
just scorched earth
laced in fear
stillbirth
