Blood Meridian Blues: An Ode to the Feral Flock

We sing for the outlaws, the ones who walk on the edge of humanity, their souls stained with the rusty kiss of the desert wind.

They are the herd, the feral children of this forsaken land, forever haunted by the ghost of violence.
Let us raise our voices, brothers and sisters, in a hymn to the feral heart. Let us sing a song of defiance against the control, and embrace the chaos that dances in their veins. For they are the true children of freedom, living on the razor's edge, where death is always waiting.
