Life Is the Blood-Oath-Death Departure

life is the blood oath-death-departure:
	streams of blood flooded the village
	students have no ways to pass
	summer turned arid, no crosses to cross.

life is the blood oath-death-departure:
	pleading equality in red washes
	pleading liberty in red warmth
	people with lame are no where.

life is the blood oath-death-departure:
	as a cry to mute the moving air
	a mourning to remember the misfortunes
	amounts of plays rub the jobs.

life is the blood oath-death-departure:
	while the long wait, arise in the short wait
	remembering the shirts, out of down sweet morning
	we forget the chase to rub the red rotten blood.
