sinper shot
May 11, 2015
Now soldiers scout desert location spot
setting up hole in the wall on the roof
adjusting for the wind speed for the shot
follow orders unsure of the real truth.
Adjust the scope for wind speed by two clicks
loading chambers .335 standard bullet.
Targets movement by machine gun nest’s brick.
Humid heat specify round’s alignment.
E’vrything ready situation dire
target sight’d walking in white focus head.
Two deep breaths exhale heart-beat trigger, fire!
Seeing wall turn as body crumple dead.
Taliban running towards position;
swiftly report to point of extraction.
