Just like little bullets
But longer and thin,
They've no metal jackets
To drive them right in.

No big, bloody holes,
No splatter of blood;
Just mild irritation
As tickled with wood.

A bullet can kill you
This second, you're dead!
But our enemy's stealthy
And puts you in bed.

It takes many years
But it's willing to wait;
For it knows in the future
It'll open death's gate.

"No jealousy here
Of the bullet" he said.
"For I know when I get you,
You'll be just as dead".
