Death's Platoon

From .... The Chronicles of Death


Death's Platoon

Predators stalked
by midnight's moon
while killers walked
in Death's Platoon.

They found their prey
with second sight
shadows creeping
throughout the night.

The end was quick
by evil's pledge,
a throat was cut
with gleaming edge.

The blood did spurt
upon the wall.
This was the end,
the victims fall.

A knife was sheathed
for that was all,
til' Death's Platoon
again would call.
