Battle Hymn

The Battle Hymn of the Republic
Keeps flowing through my brain
Just the first verse
Over and over again.

The sniperscope is fixed.
And there is the face
As he walks across the stage
And onto the right place.
I try not to disfigure it
As my bullet cuts his head;
I see the way he slumps,
Know that he is dead.

The  Battle Hymn now thumps
Like a brutal mental rape
As in all the confusion
I make good my quick escape
