Wars End

The house still stands, despite the molten phosphorous,

bubbling in the numerous craters.

Jets screech through the charred air.

The city groans with the sharp cracks and crunches of buildings toppling.

The city is aglow like no city since Dresden.

The airmen like the buildings,

for they have done what we will not.

They, one by one take their place amongst the dust from where they were wrought. Buildings submit to bombs in ways that men do not.

For my fortitude, I too must join the dust.

The fighter dives, preparing my punishment.

A point in the sky, a gray mass with no conscious gyrating wildly in it’s descent.

My armistice will be signed
