As the Entrails Wither

Serving as a warning
A display, dominate
Decomposition of viscera

Putrescence seeping from the walls
Innards decaying
Crack and spall
A proclamation to kill all

Heads on stakes
Chest is gaped, entrails draped
Fortified walls adorned with intestines
A deathscape of aging
The stench of decay

Serves as a warning
Death resides here
As entrails wither
Head on a pike
Decaying for months
Eyes eaten by crows

Writhing like snakes in the wind
Culled from intruders still alive
Kept on display forever
Festering

The stench of decay
Serves as a warning
Death resides here
As entrails wither
As entrails wither
