Is there something wrong with the verb tense here?

Fly with those vultures that left a vivid picture on my wall eating the remains of my future discarded body.

The tense is fine, but I can't quite "picture" the picture. Perhaps a comma after wall would help.

"Fly" is OK as an imperative. The writer is commanding the reader to fly with the vultures.

The rest of the sentence seems confused. It seems to be saying that the vultures were eating the remains of the body while leaving a picture

CalifJimThe rest of the sentence seems confused. It seems to be saying that the vultures were eating the remains of the body while leaving a picture on the wall, but I don't think that's exactly what the writer wanted to say.
Glad I'm not the only one confused!
