O father! Protect me For I cannot bear This sullen, sickening air Stinking!!! With the pungency of rotting flesh Of humanity. I see headless zombies Stamp bullet ridden chests Amid pools of blood Leaving a gory trail… No father! No! I dare not look beyond For this ‘Ghastly Spectacle’ Blurs my vision!
