Fade to Black

And yet 'twas another

Attempt on his life

That miserably failed

Causing bad guys more strife.

The plotters are gone.

Got caught ere the act

Of treachery happened

And that is a fact.

Expect it to get

Very dark in some places.

So black that 'twill be

Hard to see faces*.

How many places?

Will it be everywhere?

Perhaps seventeen

Will be in on the scare.

But do ye not fret

And do ye not frown.

The milit'ry's got this

And won't let you down.
