Image for the poem Devil work

Devil work

Now i lay me down to sleep
i pray the lord my soul to keep
if i die before i wake
I bid the lord my soul to take

if i die in mud and blood
soon the houses will all flood
with my broken heart astray
with their dead bodies i shall play

a girl and a boy i know
will be among the dead
i knew i would not save them
they shot me in the head
