The Battle Preemptive
Slashing, swallowing tongues of fire
Igniting his own funeral pyre
The soldier stumbles, heartstrings rent
From his gun’s chamber, bullets spent
Haggard and ruined, he cries surrender
Welcoming death as his soul’s avenger
Faltering, crumbling, face to the earth
He closes his eyes and accepts his unbirth
