They flail

They fire

They also kill.

•

As they touch, they recoil

As they propel, they recoil

As they survey, they also recoil.

•

Then they flex, and deflate

Then they reload, and deflate

Then they multiply, and deflate.

•

And they choose, and regret

And they echo, and regret

And they destroy, and regret.

•

A pillar of iron will dominate, but the dirt it bolts into will bring it down.

They touch

They grip

And they hold.

Then they kill.
