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
