FLEET COMMANDER'S BRIEFING

Speed and light, the screem of the sound
The flight of the machine, its destination not bound.
Diving and lifting, in the heat of the war,
The Mass of laser's, from cannons do pour.

Fighting for victory, honor and peace,
The strain of battle, the fight does release.
Targeting, lock, the sights turn red,
A twitch of the finger, to turn the life dead.

Such speed and grace, the object does fly,
Into the emptiness, of the night sky.
A second or two, a time so such short,
For a life to end cold, the battle has bought.
-----------------------------------------------
*Dulce et decorum est, Pro patria mori*

LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE...!
