Poems and Prose #132 - Volley

A traipse across the hill
leads the general to
an alternate-reality war,
where light smoke clouds
a boisterous, cheering crowd,
as he ducks behind a shrub,
hoping he slunk back
down in time,
before a bored, meandering glance
captures his position,
a surrender,
hoisted by wobbly knees,
sure to follow shortly.
