A Written scene       A hoarse voice in the dark calls all of us forward 
Coarse and rough, loud and tough, mouths are shut as it speaks out 
"Reach and touch me!" it exclaims 
Hearing their mission the reluctant particpants obey 
They reach out, forcing their hands into the mist 
Calm with open palms, they pull hands back balled in fists 
Their skin mauled and ripped 
covered in blood it dripped 
their attitude of innocent curiosity has flipped 
Now their scared 
fearing for their lives, got cell phones calling their wives, grab weapons, pistols and knives, swearing to pay all their tithes if they make it home alive 
and I laugh loudly as I observe with pain on my mind 
tears swimming in my eyes 
a headache forming, divide 
myself from this scene, I have tried 
But ignorance is bliss
