Walking Through the Field
Here lies a field
A field of fist and bone
Bone dilapidated by a hunger
A hunger that the innocent never yearn for
There is a field
Infested by feral rats
Rats consumed by the hunger
A hunger to gnaw on the bone
The rats are parched
Hollow echoes fill the void
A dry thocking of teeth on bone
The hunger’s victory cry
The white pure bones are dry
Filling the putrid rats with a rotten distaste
A distate turning into biting abhorrence for each other
An acrid mindest overpowers them
They all perish
Turned against each other
The hunger consumed them
Leaving more nameless skeletens among the field
The field of hunger
In which the hunger is master over everything
Until a way is found around the pain
Everyone will eat to fill their stomachs
