Living Corpse
The girl looked up at the sky The demons hissed and tore The girl - she began to cry The bright red eyes scared her The demons flew around And stuck out their poisoned tongues Flew to the groud And when it was done She was tattered and torn And when it was done Her blood, a sea; her body, a shore They licked her blood off the shore Brought their rough tongues in their mouths Death was so damned Mortals live full of doubt They think they're immortal But they are so vain So cruel, so immoral So full of pain I stare at this girl's corpse now The carrion is rotting away I knew the girl - I don't know how But she still got away And I can't abide I don't feel any pride I don't feel obliged To stay by her sidePoem is Copyright 1999, Cynthia Anne Patti
