Technology is a Weapon

159

The demons of dummy angels
ready to be devastated
by an army Institute University of Technology.
a SWAT team of employees
trying to destroy
a warlock military
looking in the future
of technology in a movie theater
in entertainment
fantasy under a hypnotic spell
protesters of military 
technology is a weapon
a challenge of competitive Warfare 
a brainstorm
that is a rainfall of knowledge
combat and tactics of survival
a military soldier in camouflage
to win the battle
and
graduate with a doctorate of weaponology
a university of pride
commitment
a guided-missile devastating and destroying
the sorcery of the uneducated.

-Wayne B.
