Wrath Like Thunder (Revision 3)

[Todd]

Revision 3

Blood, hushed to a whisper,
hissed beneath the soil
damp with accusation
as the mist that once rose, until

I 

held the world
under water,
matching murder
drop-for-drop,
and no one was left 
to cry out.

Blood hissed in a whisper
beneath the soil
damp with accusation
as the mist that once rose

matching murder
drop-for-drop
with no one left 
to cry out.

Blood became a whisper
beneath the soil
damp with accusation
as the mist that once rose.

under water, 
matching murder
drop-for-drop
with no one left 
to cry out.
