very very rough draft - no edit - more dark sniper poetry


Speak Easy

As I see the words, bring you pain
Short and shallow
Will prolong the inevitable
Do not waste your breath

You have so precious few remaining
Perhaps you should have
Paid better attention
During your basic training

Do not fight
You have already lost
The sunlight fads
Simply go gently into the dark night

Twilight is almost fully upon you
I know you can see the light
Slip away without fright
Your pain is almost gone

A warm numbness
Begins to takeover your body
Warmth leaves your body
Your blood retreats from your exterminates

Greeting the coolness
Much like a long last kiss goodnight
Say your prays
Remember speak easy
