when you hear my name

i wonder- when the people you’ve seen once upon a distant memory ask how i am, what do you say?
 do you say we don’t talk? 
do you say the truth?
 do you admit to your sins like a devil in the church- 
do you feel a charcoal burn on your soul when you see soul in the wind?
the charred burn on my soul remains forever.
 a battle scar of your anger- our great war.
 i like to think we’re biblical,
like my soul was the great garden you terminated with your unholiness,
bugs crawling our of my beautiful garden of a soul- with the chemical burns of a thousand souls from your extermination.
