Desiree ChampagneTerrell Ms. Gardner English 10H, Period 4 6 December 2014 Deny the Enemy Deny the enemy from your comfortable crouch in a colossal copter. Watch as the tiny ants below run around helplessly, trying to escape the inescapable. Deny the enemy. And their wives. And their children. Deny the enemy, But not the buildings that once stood tall, now reduced to rubble. Not the ash that coats childrens lungs, like a second skin. Not the store fronts with their jagged tooth, gaping mouths. Deny the enemy And they will deny you.
