G/Luck @Mr. J @Cimmerian

sorry about the wait, hopefully we can muster votes quicker this time around

This shall be interesting.........how many lines you gonna go....

More likely than not, 160 words or less. Write as much as you'd like, Mr. Jefferson.

Cimm.

As the darkness covered my hands I knew as I started...
this is my job, I have chosen this road...my mind departed.
memories are locked in each bullet that left my hand...
Stopping would be foolish there is a war that threatens man...
woman, child...I accept the chance to protect each one.
a breath of relief comes...woman & child, bless each one.
my heart leaps from my chest as the alarms blare...
I look around for my fellow man but they aren't there.
We have taken hits to our company, carried more than our share
equipped with the same hardware, served longer hours...
Yea...we put our souls on the line only to be disposed of.
only to return home beaten, while others have just blown up
I've known enough about this reality as I was growing up
We didn't choose to live this lifestyle...it chose us.
Our communication broke up several days prior...
there is more to lose, than there is to gain. the price of an empire
the emotion drains from my face & my pride lays in the fire
my source of closure arrives in the faces of hundreds of survivors
the war is over...with the factory shut down, none of us are getting hired

@Cimmerian

@Adonis :D

Word play genius over here.

@Cimmerian

We're moving on tonight. Post or no show

I'll concede. I had a couple new cases come in the door that I've been putting heavy hours for. No time to write. Sorry for the anti-climatic result. I signed up for this thing so I'd be inspired to write. It's definitely done that. Thanks, Adonis.

I hate your life
