Listen to poem:

In the Cross Hairs

I stand lined up in the sights 
between black lines, 
going from left to right
going up and down, 
lines drawn as crossroads,
at the intersection point 
between chance and choice
sighted and aligned
in the cross hairs,
targeted by 
the sniper 
with squinted eyes
called
'Fate'
