Death From Above (Free verse) by Jimbo
29, September ? '?71 ~ Death From Above ~ when spirit goes wandering to the wind and those below stand alone and unguarded we few above bring those to death below ~ committed and unheeded they wait for death falling from the gates of the unblessed like waiting for monsoon rains that surely will come ~ and swells within the ocean lifting waves to new heights undefined but always present the sky dropping the waste of shit to fall upon those laying in wait the hands of death . . .soon ~ committing wrongs that cannot be undone this crime of all crimes intruders falling to unwanted peoples above all the death not a soul really gave a damn ~ let my words lie heavily upon hearts the righteous are not innocent of deed for the wicked those whom have been robbed are not blameless of being robbed ~ those who murder are not accountable for their own murder we are all victims to those that are injured good and evil fit so well ~ and although we should be outraged who will be the judge to judge those that fell be it Death From Above or those that fell to those from Above ~ what is the penalty to those who slay the flesh this silent heart of mine entwined here within the earth the thief of spirit into our evil tree . . .roots are dead ~ what laws shall we fear when we enter the path to heavens gate who will break open the chains that held us who will be in command ~ seeking freedom to become unharnessed where days were without care ungodly thoughts Death From Above falling spirits tied to mushrooms ~ the battlefield of my mind can someone speak to me in reason of passion to wage war and quench appetite this rivalry played out in my mind has turned to nothing but discord ~ and the flames that burn within shall cause its own destruction resurrection has passed and now lies here in its own ashes searching for peace and serenity in distant fields and meadows ~ someday i will come to rest in God's forest and my heart will rest in silence no thoughts no reminders where pain would not seem less than joy i cannot forget Death From Above ~ Thom

a bit long, but quality. I could edit a version of this for you.
