Hovering above the dim sky the sun have never prevailed

Upon this land, no perpetual beauty to which they availed

In this land,

Vapour of blood and puss from festering bodies assailed

The vision blur but with stench of death so march on

Upon the road,

loved ones fall, one by one, in the most undignified way

yet so innocent, every one the same among the faces in decay

then ends, all that favouritism they embraced as their own

every slaughter, stranger, sacrificed to the mortal crown

now kings and queens writhe alongside servants and slaves

families and strangers lie in this field bloodied mass graves

so have they fell one by one, yet in unison

suffering felt beyond the faculty of reason

as fated they are, as chained prisoners befriend

the compassion, revealed in the frailty of the end

brutal gift, as colourless as the sky beyond

 

 

 

 

 

I had a strange dream, not a nightmare but something I wanted to take note of. So I attemped to capture in poetic form since dream is abstract. And also I have no life and nothing better to do. So I shamelessly post here my stupid poem. Someone said dream exists outside of flow of time, isn\'t that neat?

    James, did you compose this? It is so mournful. I couldn\'t get my mind off bryan as I read it. I hope this is not a premonition.
