Spiritual Combat: Part Two
by Nicole Terry
The soldier awoke on the sun driven body slain back of the desert.
He spoke to no one
Everything
Universe nothing
His empty soldierless war torn storm.
Ten thousand years ago more: war marching whore!
He never tried or cried in the sun,
dried
beaten
sheltered
slathered
bloody
eel
!
Dangerous mind, venomous mind,
Thinks a thought into a scream.
Blue.
Breathe.
Genesis—
A ready killer on the road.
