Turret Vision


Bullets grace this darkened night sky of mine

Lights flash above the stone encrusted walls

Tragedy strikes as my commander dines

Without remorse as his blood servants fall

The rain weeps in pity for all dead souls

The outcome seems dark, a desolate end

Crossing the hairs for fellow armored ghouls

A flicker of hope explodes as they fend

The parting clouds permit a weightless treat

Reversal of fears encompass the sky

As our commander rises to feet

Hoisting a victorious flag up high

Cheers erupt through enemy defeat

A promising sight of a needed win

Surpasses the cries of murderous sins
