I'm staring at the sight, The trembling hand and arm. I'm putting up no fight; I stand my ground, still calm. I calculate the spot At which the fire hits. I visualise it; hot, And now the snub-nose spits. The red-hot venom chasing My fears and pain inside, Is like the empty casing; Spent, and cast aside. My pulse is surging still, As I look for the snakebite. You're waiting for your kill, And still staring down your sight. But, you see, I'm bullet-proof; No slug could take me out. My breath still raises the roof, As my Kevlar lungs shout.
