Dead Eyes See Dead Stars
Dead Eyes See Dead Stars
by Matthew Brothers
Cylinder of sound rotating around,
ears hear voices from the ground.
Crawling about below,
what they do no one can know.
When the sounds surround,
the decayed will run, scream, and cry.
Those reactions given to the realization,
and the three are shared across the nation.
This moment of sound,
when the skulls look around,
they all learn what they are-
the bones of those perished so far.
They can move, their senses active,
however, their sight-
what they see is not attractive.
Their sight blinded, their hope bound
-to despair.
Blindly trying to dig to the top,
reach the starry sky.
But even so,
dead eyes only see dead stars.
