a loud cry
amplified
in the ensuing silence

dying away to a murmur
a whisper, then a hush
death
humiliating the alive
a horror tale
narrated
by the bloodless lips
of an ashen corpse.

For a short poem, it still hit me as descriptive, especially the last line. I could picture the ashen face and actually scared myself for a second there.
