Bullet casings

A Poem by Maxwell Ryder
"

"
Our bullet casings
Will be here longer
Than our bones;
Our blood paints
glyphs unto stone,
Stick figures in
Moses beards
Hold machine guns,
Herding humans
To and fro,
Fighting over lands
Born under the Sun,
Ground into dust,
Till there isn’t even
A messiah to come
Or god to overthrow.
