Humanitarian Help Sly Given Flies Well Ordered

cobweb spun over sight eye
scan is a three dimensional pilot’s
scope hung upon a perspex canopy
advancing technology allows

vision to span far horizons at hyper speed
few have authorized privileges to target
distances with such chilling precise speed
with politics bitter fruits hidden agendas

renders a nation’s stealth ploy technological
achievements apex ace aviator abilities alas
subservient puppet planes to oiled war greed

a NATO no fly zone imposed to gain new fields
of shifting sand conceals access oil tanker port
taken possessions necessary to milk oil profits
