Thor's hammer hits the ground Vibrating our mortal flesh and bones
Like fish in a barrel we wait our turn, as the human wants to hide
But the soldier in us must move forward…
Never a backward step taken for fear of emboldening the enemy
Grasping the rocks like a sailor in a hurricane being tossed around the ocean
We wait………
As the barrage subsided there is a metallic clicking
Of bayonets fixing onto rifles…Then silence…
Before our wrath is unleashed in return……
A deadly game of chess with 7.62…..
Our move…our game to win or loose..
He laughs and lifts his mighty hammer once more
