Soldier of Fortune

There will come a time
Maybe today, or tomorrow
Where a soldier of fortune
Will gloat in his sorrow

For his trackers and he
On a mission to tame
Will hunt him down 
And leave him in maim

Through the wires of code
In binary bite
This soldier of fortune
Will, with all his might

Where will he start
It's for his prey to guess
When he knocks on his door
Instant distress

Before he is taken 
A justice is served
For some times in this world
Some things are deserved
 
He is handed over to their FBI
In the land of the free, their justice he's tried
For if he was left, with the soldier of fortune
He would remember that day
His day of misfortune

I agree with Jared, James. I want to see this "soldier of fortune" get what he deserves. Excellent rhyme scheme employed here as well. You score big time once again, Highlander! Love, Carolyn
