《THE WHITE ROSE PAINTED WITH BLOOD》xi - glass that looked like steel

they painted a layer of liquid steel
over the surface of his skin
and they thought he was invincible
that his skin was a bullet proof vest
but he was not made of titanium
the bullets marked fire brimmed constellations in his skin
they filled him to the brim with gasoline and thought he was a machine
his pride made him keep walking through the smoke that filled his lungs in poison
and his skin was ripped off and replaced with darkness
but he still had blood in his veins
instead of fire
and in the end
he was just glass that looked like steel

The Pack
'When you’re in hell, only demons can save you...' For a thousand suns humanity has lived on this world, a world of advanced knowledge and medieval ways, a world whose history has been lost in a fog of tales and fragments of ancient learning. Upon this planet a young man is betrayed and sold by those he called family. Lost and alone, he discovers a weapon more powerful than anything he could imagine. Now, holding the power to level entire cities, he may be the last hope for a humanity on the edge of extinction. But the howl of the pack has changed, and what was once a sound of comfort and protection brings only terror as it echoes across the mountains. When high technology meets low society, when the natural clashes with the artificial, when the very world itself seems bent on eradicating humankind, those caught in the middle must choose, though every choice brings with it its own loss. A choice between humanity, and the pack. (Download as an eBook - choose your own price - at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1150699)
