Final Moments

What was the thinking in those final moments?

No hesitation or regrets?

Nothing to cause you to pause and reconsider?

For the sake of six young souls

Their aching cries in unison

What might have been

..... was forever lost in a demented vision

Of an easy way out

All silenced for greed

For an imagined charade of eternal relief 

..... from demons and ghosts 

For insane jealous satisfaction
