Fade out
Callsign “nowhere”
Forget tomorrow
Too short to last
Double take?
Around the bend
Opposing forces
Err of war
Round house
Enemy engaged
Heightened tensions
Peninsular holocaust
Faster pace
Don’t look back
Alarms ring out
Popped to trigger
All pistols cocked
All missiles locked
And so it begins
All over again
