A violent act…

Image via Wikipedia

 

Before he could even draw a breath,

a soul entered,

followed by death,

there was a flare of yellow light,

scarring the night,

then there was a sickening snap,

neck cracked,

the soul’s hands went to his mouth,

mind rocked,

heart shocked,

then his eyes rolled back,

and he fell to the floor,

a brutal attack,

and he was no more.

    Again, powerful imagery and the feeling of deaths grip squeezing so tightly….then snapping the spirit of life. Where do we go from there? Powerful prose my friend, indeed it is!
