    (red-headed, sorry I didn't see your line, I picked up just_mercedes' last line. This is Shared Haiku, not 3 People........)

    small snapshots of time
    come in two sizes: tiny
    and forgettable

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    in the final scene
    where everything has quickly stopped
    I am not alone
    Pitiful creatur of darkness,
    What kind of world have you known?
    God give me courage to guide me,
    You are not alone.

    grinding the moment
    into devastating dust
    spellbound, sealed in fate

    still fire and fury can't stop
    the fighter in me

    the fighter in me
    waits for the choice open punch
    then takes it, one, two
    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    then takes it, one, two
    minding the steps beneath you
    dance on heated ground
