PAINLESS DEATH

A DREAM I WOKE UP FROM THE OTHER DAY

APPROACH ME IN A GROUP

DRESSED IN KHAKI UNIFORM

SUMMON ME FOR SOME WORK

SOMETHING I SENSE IS WRONG

AND THE INTUITION GROWS LOUD

LEAD ME TO A TRAP 

HAVING A LAUGH WITH ME 

MAKE ME COUNT MY EVERY BREATH

MY DEATH IS MEANT TO BE

SHOOT ME THROUGH MY EYE

SHOOT ME THROUGH MY NECK

SHOOT ME TILL I CAN'T CRY

SHOOT ME THROUGH MY CHEST

SHOOT ME EVERY PLACE

AND THE BLOOD SPILLS AROUND

When blood runs and the heart walks. The battle is not one of speed, but of endurance.

In the grapes of wrath, John Steinbeck says, “Wherever they’s a fight so hungry people can eat, I’ll be there. Wherever they’s a cop beatin’ up a guy, I’ll be there... ' And then he says , ' “Up ahead they's a thousan' lives we might live, but when it comes it'll on'y be one.”

It might be important that we live that one life well.

The imagery you portray in this vivid dream paints harrowing picture of the atrocities happening in the world today. Even though it was a dream I am sure very upsetting to
re-live on paper..

Thought provoking... :o).
