The downward wind was chilly
Flowing down from the ice clad peak
I sat at the cabin’s window
Eating a slice of dried steak
The CIA are looking for me
Abdul Muhammad is my name
I am going to destroy America
And here I am for the same
Americans killed my friends
Americans butchered my baby
It was payback time now
And I’m going to succeed maybe
My men had done a dangerous job
Getting the code from president’s bomb shelter
It was time for Uncle Sam to go down
And everything’s going to be helter-skelter
Tears trickled down my eyes
As I typed in the lethal word
A lump swelled in my neck
The password was ‘NUKE SWORD’
I swear I didn’t want to do this
If only there was dissimilar way
I hate to kill the innocent children
With jolly faces as they play
I believe in an eye for an eye
But I was taking the whole body
Was this the right way of revenge?
Would tell me somebody
Something didn’t feel right
About pushing the Doom button
My palms were getting sweaty
And all my confidence was gone
‘ABORT PLAN! ABORT PLAN’
On the two-way radio I yell
My heart beating at light speed
My chest giving a huge swell
‘Insha-Allah’ I cry out
As the radio gives a positive reply
I ran out into the snow
Kneeled down and started to cry
I walked down towards the village
Saw the children play for a while
My child’s spirit appeared in front of me
He looked at me and smiled

Hmm I definitely cringed several times during this piece as well my inner secret service-a la 24-CTU expert wanted to report this poem with hand outstretched and finger pointing squeal. However the end redeems its extremes. Good writing precipitates such reactions.
Thank You for Posting
Keep the Pen Flowing
Peace
REAL PEACE
