The Vultures Dance.
Timelike and the decaying bodies piled high cease to amuse the vultures now
Single shots give the rebels confidence
They attack in force
Heavy machine gun fire from the west toss bodies into the air like ragdolls
Textbook
Vultures tearing at eyes of the dead and dying
Bullets to precious for mercy
The night brings natures other cleaners
Muffled screams heighten the reactions as night vision survey death in technicolor
The ponderous wait continues
Stroking metal like some *** provoking act
Followed only by counting lives little savers, bullets of love
The vultures dance impatiently
The stroking intensifies
Hairs stand ***** as movement waves majestically towards its final objective
A sudden calm unfolds
Nature watches in awe as love is unleashed in her garden for the final time
The call to bayonets now, takes man down to his lowest form of savagery
Eyes now meet, screaming death the ferocious last act of men past the point of madness
Blood flows as metal slice through skin and bone, swaying death the final frenzy as screams die the days end
Men cry as they survey the last atrocity of human barbarity
Battle ended, vultures marvel feasting on the final meal
Battle hardened men massacre memories leaving Celebrations a distant Country as blood red hands refuse to wash
They would never return.
