Rocks and sand

Attack fed into attack

Bastions arrived to end a threat

Colonel against caliph

Dedicated to peace and safety

Everyone is a target

Fringing with stealth

Guns feed a starving reality

History repeated itself

Instinct drives the petty to evil

Jagged cliffs breed danger

Kill or be killed in the sands

Lone soldiers without an army

Mangled dreams

Negotiating with one's enemy

One nation of many sworn under God

Power is fleeting

Questions begin to rise

Rangers scout and scour

Survival became key

Tiresome endeavors led to nothing

Undercover victories and losses

Vivid colors fade from sight

Willpower can never be broken

X marked the spot

Yet where will it lead?

Zooming out of the fight
