Bloody Soil

I just can’t forget

to remember the red soil

before and after

the cock fights.

I just can’t forget

to remember the red soil

before and after

the bleeding moons.

I just can’t forget

to remember the red soil

before and after

the dripping eyes.

I just can’t forget

to remember the red soil

before and after

the slashed penises.

I just can’t forget

to remember the red soil

before and after

the spilt watercolor.

I just can’t forget

to remember the red soil

before and after

the violent rape.

I just can’t forget

to remember.

Isn’t it just fucking unfair?
