I can see; the bloodred sky, the tops of trees, the curves of earth.    

I can smell; the gentle wind, carrying sweet smoke, and tasty food.  

I can hear; the bursting of bombs, screaming children, and then…                            Silence.

TW: death

This is a Korean style of poetry, it's called Sijo. Pronounced (shee, jo). Not many people know about this style of poetry because it is similar to Haiku but Haiku takes up the spotlight.
