Fluttering Souls

Flutter
                               Look up I see
                      Their souls flittering past
          Down here smell carnage, hear clink, slash
               neighing a warning, another one falls
               Crunch of bone- stampeding to death
                      Screams of dying horses
                           Take me from here	
                                     Flutter

Amy, congrats on your win! This is terribly disturbing and sad. I'm sure it wasn't easy for you to write. Though, someone has to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. Love and Blessings, Rhonda
