I revised this again... please review. :)
“Human”
Blood pours from the
sky,
Staining every soul
Bound to this sunless
field of murder.
I see the man beside me
raise his face
To the clouds and open
his mouth,
Drinking deeply of
death.
Only rain—water masks
deceit—
Plays before his wasted
eyes, as he watches but
Ignores the streaking
dye.
Rotting flesh falls
from his
Hands to the ground,
muddied with dirt and blood,
But he feels nothing,
only numbness.
Agonized screams fall
through his
Ears and leak out,
dribbling to his shirt collar, because
He doesn’t know they
are human.
I watch him drink the
devil’s wine,
Thirsty for pain and
deception, and I run because
I don’t think he is
human.
