HISTORY ABOUT TO HAPPEN

the language of time
nails the sky and sea
together

making the horizon
smile with
the new light

and so day is
spoken
into existence

sky and sea
the same
bound inseparably

the morning fragments
into the many men
going about their lives

each man
tied to his own thought
imprisoned in self

the battle is but
moments away
history about to happen

it is a Sunday
yet War
doesn't stop for God

both sides fervently
believing that He is
on their side

the opening salvo
tears
a man's head off

his thoughts
lost
forever

the battle
commences
Time tells its tale
