The World Is Ugly

More delliquit than a flower Stranded on an island of thieves  Rising up from the ashes of the burning trees The constant smell of burning flesh We laid down to rest The crisp feel of the leaves Bark burning at a raging speed But our eyes are to blind to see What I feel is no less  That would be your guess
