Minefields
Just came out from debrief
aligning my perspective
calming my mind
focusing on the objective
tuning in...
my heartbeat
racing ever so slightly
my vision, focusing upon my mission
Let me check my pulse
still strong
check...
remove the chocks
from the wheels of my dream engine
initiate preflight checks
test communications
the engines are fired up
and primed for action
my mission parameters,
locked in...
moving into position
for this launch into space
i've done a thousand times before
but, this is war...
looking through the mirror
the enemy i see...
is nothing more than
the enemy in me

Would be somewhat decent if somebody up there in "administan" would at least communicate before putting the hammer down. Censor ship is not a good vibe.
