Analysis and Error Correction of 'Remains'
Not real content, as per instructions, but a typical excerpt from 'Remains':
'On another occasion, we get sent out
to tackle looters raiding a bank,
I went into his image, sat down, and drunk
on the other side of his life, he’s there on the ground,
my stomach churns, bloodied, as I see him, smeared,
his face twisted in pain, a snapshot in my mind,
We get sent out again, to the same place, same scene,
but I can’t forget, adding weight to my guilt,
The war’s not over, it’s within me, haunting every step,
I try to move on, but the memories still echo,
His face, his last moments, etched in my brain,
The shield of numbness cracks, revealing raw pain.
