Dogfight

I turned into the fight with a burst from my guns Please don’t jam on me now Pouncing unseen onto a ME One One Zero He’s gonna go down somehow My cannon have hit the iron heart of this beast Causing his progress to falter Ripping in hard to his starboard wing section I will take no quarter He’s hit the deck hard, there’s an explosion Plenty of kites left in the sky Pull back on the stick, open the throttles There with a blink of the eye Looking for a target, another appears Making this my eleventh kill The sky is my war zone, let battle commence Eleventh that is until…… Now I’ve taken a hit, but I’m still in the sky Glycol streaming away If this damage should deteriorate some how I’ll have to leave this fray Cutting power to my portside motor Rudder moved accordingly to adjust The stick has gone heavy, flames eating the wing My faith above, in him I trust Losing height fast, but my guns are still blazing Opening the canopy now I’m trying like mad to keep this beast airborne But really don’t know how Down goes another foe in a hail of cannon fire My ammunition is out Looking for a safe place to ditch this fiery crate
