Analysis of Boneland

C.D.Young 2002 (Memphis)



I woke up in a strange place
A place with no inhabitants
A place that bring chills down my spine
As I roam this place
All I can see is black roses
Broken weapons
and bones of the unliving
I spotted a woman dressed in black and purple
With a hoodie over her head
And a sliver medallion necklace
I walked towards her
And asked her where was I
She told me that I'm at one of the underworld division
Boneland
A place where people decompose slowly
And a place where the men of battle fight endlessly
