Harvester of harm




 

The wound gaping

Gurgling, gushing blood

Air fleetly escaping

In a sanguine flood

Face in panic contorted

Lips quivering blue

Motions exaggeratedly distorted

Aid is already overdue

Through the hole

Through the roof

Rising like a soul

The smoking proof

That mind blown

Never to be the same

For he alone

Must carry blame

Forgot to disarm

Forgot the last round

Harvester of harm

Body on the ground
