Their pain
Blood, gore, flesh.
Screams, cries, wails.
The heat of the flames brushes my cheeks
My muscles cringe.
My blood boils
Steam leaks from my pores
Forests burn in my eyes,
Victims are scattered,
Dead flesh is at my feet.
Death.
Pain.
Joy.
My muscles excite
My eyes gleam
My lips smile
Joy.
Pain.
Death.
Souls evaporate
From this world
Dying victims know
Death is here
Which makes me proud
