military scifaiku poetry
Your first warning
cookout
one summer night
sting of the bug zapper
“It is possible—but extremely unlikely—that
your first warning of an enemy attack might be the
flash of a nuclear explosion in the sky some distance away. Or there
might be a flash after warning had been given, possibly while you were
on your way to shelter.”
