Analysis of Soldiercide
Soldiercide-
The velvet plume
The solar field can kill
Furries sing
On vultures wings
To factor out the cause
Twas' there's alone, that fabled home
Where eagles dare to fly
On blue skies, where angels cry
And love can gentrify
The vast cloud billows forth
Still vaster yet the sea
That soldiercide petrified
With its' sacrifice
In our arms guilt is cold
The solar field won't warm
So high a price, that in their eyes
Was theirs alone to own.
