Face of Oblivion - Debridement

Copied!

Lonely darkened road
Foggy and low visibility
Imminent vehicular accident
Pine snaps splinters impale
Wires make contact and current enters
Path of least resistance
Electricity surges through your body
Coursing and pulsing
Useless attempt at avoiding
The head on collision
Electrical devastation
Coursing and pulsing
Useless attempt at avoiding
The head on collision
Electrical devastation
Smelling smoldering flesh
Involuntary constriction
Cardiac arrest bubbling epidermis
Tissue below sub dermal damage
Dead skin forcibly removed
Make way for new growth
Screams fill the burn ward
Escharotomy fasciotomy
Cold steel rollers as the grating tool
Excises skin dead skin forcibly removed
Involuntary constriction
Cardiac arrest bubbling
Tissue below sub dermal damage
Dead skin forcibly removed
Stitches and staples
Injected with fluids
To ward off the coming infection
Debridement the daily ritual
Pine snaps and splinters impale
Wires make contact and current enters
Path of least resistance
Electricity surges through your body
