Taut
Pulled beyond my limit
Every which way
No room for error
*Snap*
No give
All take
*Snap*
A fiery explosion
A burning inferno
Rises in the sky
The blood red
Slashes through grim layers of grey
Sheets of cloud as far as the eye can see
Rolling like sullen hills drained of all color
beaten to a pulp
filled with angry bruises
Fiery reds and sickly yellows quickly join
Melding, swirling
Growing, churning
As they carelessly punch through the blue-grey clouds
Leaving sickly green shadows in it's wake
The body
Empty
Lazily floats to the ground
Carried by a stray breeze like so much shrapnel
No room to go
Tattered remains
No more than what could have been
Now
An empty shell.
