Died With Open Eyes

Died with open eyes

Like millions of others

Enshrouded in darkest pain

All hope lost

Crime of the century

Trauma induced terror

Subatomics reflect

Fusing man and stone

Nucleus radiates

Seismic waves

Molecules split

Edge of existence

Fueling their greed

Fires engulfing

Growing loss

Underscores

Need for violence

Taking human life

Without thought of consequence

Abomination of mankind

Eye for an eye

Forced the hands

Of revenge

Catastrophe, atrocity

Killing for a cause

Militia, portrait of hate

As the sky unfolds

Scattered bodies

Lie in the wake

Of human decay

Enemy of nature, black rain

Children murdered

Search for survivors

Identify the dead

Siblings mourn

Only pieces to recover

Quarantine the stench

Rescue impossible

Anti government stance

Ultimate penalty paid in full

Unnumbered multiples

Dying swiftly

Blood lines severed for eternity

Infection of man

Killing your own

In the name of genocide

Public viewing the obliteration

Devastating travesty
