Part 9

Nine

The gunfight in the dressing room
was the worse the Unit found afterwards
with the door left off the hinges
and bodies laid out all
over the back of the stage
alongside lines of dust
that Unit Leader 1 was convinced
had been some of the creatures

Burning a smell of rotting flesh
that stank out
the smell all the way
from the toilets
all the way back to the door
and the line of bodies
lined out like breadcrumbs

laid out like a icy reflection of death

creaking into the mist
tunnelled deep into
the old underground
leaving you feeling
like you had gone to your own funeral
and not either
the bravest soldier
would dare enter.
