Untitled

Cobra spits hot venom
The angry wasp she flies
Her stingers ripping open
The fertile Cresent sky
Roaring dragon screaming
Across horizons high
Vaporizing annihilation
In her flames they die
The mutilated offerings
what's left of her flight
Flames of bone and concrete
Left burning in the night
They called to her on wireless
Begged her to fly our way
Burning manscapes to the ground
and we went on our way

Each time you write works like this BR, I wonder when you will put the memories away and move on. I know how difficult it is. We have 70,000 dead and gun battles on the streets of our cities. A woman I knew had her baby blown out of her arms by a stray bullet passing through the bus she rode. I would like to see you use the images and sounds as protest writings against the ignorance of man who tells us that a stranger is our enemy. I appreciate your works and my comment is directed more toward you than your words.

I'm working on it doc, thanks for the review.

You know I live within a mile of NAS Pensacola, and every now and again an aircraft will fly overhead and actually shake the house...the brick f*****g house...and I'm always like, "Damn!" I cannot even imagine what it must sound like to have those things roaring overhead when they mean business. Then again, with this good descriptive write, I can. Thanks for this, Baby.
