Killing Time

by Aileen Brown, Sagittarius - Not entered

My war against time	
parades on.
My troops march arhythmically
to the deafening sound of bullets.
Carrying guns of great size,
we feverishly shoot at the seconds and minutes,
ending their existence.
No sorrow is spent
on yesterday's fatalities.
Each battle lasts years--
this war may go on
Forever.

Reason for writing:

    I was thinking about the paradox of time...
