Somewhere between the shades of grey

Where the sky meets the ocean

Invisible steel kissed the waves

Here it comes through the rain



Watching alone for birds of prey

Flying high out of the sunset

The picket patrol scans and waits

For a sign overhead



Cutting the spray she pitched and rolled

Unaware that she was chosen

Minutes away, the devil's own

Had her marked from the rest



Here silicon heart hummed below

Careful eyes checked the readings

Deep in the dark, machines aglow

But nothing showed on the screens



Somewhere between the shades of grey

Where the sky meets the ocean

Invisible steel kissed the waves

Here it comes through the rain
