his daughter recommended Into the
Badlands so why wouldnt he drop in
a slaughter an execution on a
dusty roadside
whats with closing the eyes of the dead?
the protagonist turns over a young boy his throats been cut his eyes
are opaque staring blindly perhaps on
the horrorthe veil fitted over them is a trace of whoever leered over him relished cutting his throat the boy was helplessly his arms bound behind him
the protagonist pauses then from his squat he reaches down to the boys
face and closes his eyes
the murdered the defiled cant
see
it seems whoever discovers the
dead is dutybound somehow to provide them one final comfort the comfort of not having ants or flies crawl
over their withering eyeballs
no matter the maggots are coming the reclamation has begun
he knew the dead are beyond caring
turn off a television its only a matter of time before the heat
runs out of it and it is as cool as a cucumber and useless until the next
broadcast
when would the soul of the murdered be
broadcast again
theres slim hope it can be reborn reanimated
into a mature vessel that might provide them their revenge their
retribution or worse nigglingly aware
but fearful and without any intentions of facing down or ambushing their murderer seeing them in their third eye the horrorveil they were impressed upon they know however cowardly they shut it down turnoff the broadcast
and hide
