Credulous creatures were they.
Swiftly scattering from one to the other
Sneaking from distant lands with a distant malady
Its cold eyes carried deaths name, whispering pungent words, fear me for I bring death to this once breathing land
Hands intertwined, they spin round and round, gaily singing of deaths domain.
Till one by one the words run out, with pockets full of posies, One by one...they all fall down
The charred remains of disfigured bodies
Left only to be remembered by their once calm and tender hand
As one remains in her deserted home, a timid creature flustered about,
Only to live a few hours more she writes,
Like roses they fell, petal by sweet petal
They withered away
Into oblivion
