God's Gallows

Hanging, writhing corpses

Lingering before God

His lying tongue, intolerable voice. 

Eyes extinguished within darkness. 

Thirst for life,

Death before me. 

To travel between eyes, 

The lying remained alive. 

A red countryside

Near a little town. 

The late light, blooming heat,

Not a young child, nor any of the others, left alive.
