“Friendly Fire” I was writing when death came like the sound of clouds cracking open the sound like all 4 horses, hooves kicking in windows, stenographically speaking like a scream, my world shattered, the sound like wanton sirens piercing the unassuming quiet, my hands were on fire then, the keys melting into the nerve ending of it all as I punched holes...

I took my arm i wore my shield Got Sown in the unknown field In the name of peace we stand Playing a role we do not understand Anthems of the flock ringing in my ears They all do not know but have been told Noise of agony filled my hearing Scenes of doom tore my being I see visions of my abandoned...
