                                                After Reading  "Confessions of a Drone"

                                              

                                                The bird says the pilot got confused, went silent -
                                                "and then he screamed."

                                                Something to do with the nature of the target.

                                                This mechanical assassination aircraft,
                                                supposed to be very accurate
 
                                                but sometimes

                                               . . . "ruined pieces of a lot of humans,
                                                especially small humans . . ."

                                                                   The sands turned red,
                                                                   he saw
                 
                                                                                 "pieces of dead humans
                                                                                                hanging in trees . . ."

                                                The stuff of nightmares -

                                                only

                                                it's not a dream.
