Calloused hands lifted to heaven dementia
under a blazing sun or rain or bullets,
shouting hunger in an impotent sphere,
to collect the emptiness, despise a cannibal.
Laterite red color of dried scattered blood,
to hear the vermilion earth for a sun flamboyant,
death and its vultures gather in the vicinity rodent,
scrutinizing trans humanity following the convoy.
Vice squeezing the life, death becomes complacency,
takes them under its wings, promised for a tomb,
behind the bodies on bridge engulfed to hesitate;
to hear screams hollow; taking the agony gaping wounds.
Life auctions, where death as little undulations,
surround the coup by shrouding life to fallow,
coastal waterfalls stretched on rough straws,
as an inflammable hunger in the heart of the flesh.

this is quite disturbing, as i suspect, is the emotion you were going for. it read quite fast and felt like a whirlwind of emotions and images.
thanks for entering.
