The Sky is Drowning in the Blood of a Thousand Virgins

In the Middle of a peaceful Time

glaring into distances of beauty

At Smoking piles of refuge the people cry

Such an unpleasantry



Death is dying in darkness

crying

lying and cheating

killing, beating



bruises hurt hearts

worse than your cast of spells

and soul selling for your life,

is dying for your death

Author's Notes/Comments: 

the connection between context and title?  Should there be a reason for everything?
