Scarlet red shining like dew on the barren landscape

Ducks in the midnight foxhole

The trenches are too far away to run and escape the onslaught of human strife.

The briar covering the ground

wrapped around lifeless trees

cannot prevent the foxes from finding a way through.

The end of artificial calls

of booming and wild sensations

have finally ended.

The lone fox can finally escape.

His brethren run past

frothing from their mouths

at the stupidity of their prey.

The calls start again.

Scarlet red shining like dew on the barren landscape

Ducks in the midnight foxhole

The trenches are too far away to run and escape the onslaught of human strife

The lone fox looks out of his foxhole

afraid of the unknown

and awaits help

as the calls end again.
