sickly sweet

 

the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench

it covers the skin

assaults the taste buds

eyes water from the gasses

just can't get used to the smell

the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench

dead bodies abundant

decaying flesh

the sky blackened by flies

rats and maggots made the ground seem alive

the calling for the dead has begun

mass graves not an option

burn the corpses

the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench

so pungent it burns the nose

you want to vomit but emptied out days ago

eyes of the dead staring

how many more will be infected

how many more will end up dead

the air was thick with a sickly sweet stench
