From Hair to Eternity

 

Cloud and smoke and steam below

Perfect camouflage

Sniper smiles through taught cross hairs

I like how this is the video game era and allows us this level of understanding. In a game as a sniper I don't think about how the man or woman is oblivious to me as I look at them through the crosshairs, how I will end their life with the click of a trigger, and how even if they run they won't escape. The detachment and necessary reasons to kill in that moment so opposed to the way we live our lives outside the game. It's a perspective I understand, a split that must be made to live with your actions for all eternity... For if you hesitate, you cost lives, and you'll regret that for all eternity too.

it takes a certain coldness to do this...and i feel this is more allegory than not...
there are those who shoot hearts from a distance...they zero in on the target, but themselves, they never get close enough in their hearts.

One of our neighbors is a retired sharpshooter for the military. Sweetest little old man. Nevertheless we try and keep our dogs from pooping in his yard. Just in case.

purrrrrrrrrr..... ♥
Your title really made me smile. There's one hell of a smoke screen here clouding the issue. Requires a super sleuth methinks. Eternity is an awful long time.

snipers may have to wait forever, sometimes, it can seem longer... cheers our Chris :)
I can clearly see this brilliant words craftsman becoming a mad scientist at selecting a title to make his readers chuckle!
What an intriguing atmosphere you have painted, a perfect scenario for mystery to unfold.
