the sniper

HE SITS,
HE WAITS,
HE THINKS, HE EVALUATES,
STUDYING THE GROUND,
STUDYING ALL AROUND,
EVER WATCHFUL,
SMOOTHERED IN MILATRY MAKE UP,
YELLOW , GREEN AND BROWN,
THE BUSHES ARE HIS HOME,
FOR DAYS ON END,
STARING DOWN THE BARREL,
EVER WATCHFUL,
EVER VILIGENT,
CHEWING ON THE MATCHSTICK,
KEEPING NERVE AT BAY,
FEEDING FROM THE TIN,
EVERY GIVEN DAY,
THE SOUNDS OF WAR,
RINGING THROUGH THE SNIPERS EARS,
CONCENTRATE, CONCENTRATE,
THE ENEMY NEARS,
THE SPOTTERS ON THE RADIO,
HES NOW ON CENTRE STAGE,
TIME TO PICK OFF THE ENEMY,
THE RIFLE WILL RAGE,
DOWN GO THE ENEMY ONE BY ONE,
ONCE THEY'RE DOWN, THE JOB IS DONE,
ITS TIME TO GO HOME,
EVER WATCHFUL OF THE SUN,
SUN BEING THE ENEMY OF A SNIPER WITH HIS GUN!!
