Forget that Abu Ghrabi Jail forget!
And the foul apple wardens sick and bad,
Look to heroic fighters lo, - the numberless!
Brave heroes that the Lord may keep and bless!
But Abu Ghrabi jail is sweet compared
What terror masters hold for us prepared.
Horrendous evil from the darkest pit,
That strains and does exceed by far our wit.
Bad apples ‘mongst our own did make things bad,
But slowly with a knife saw off a head
Of innocent a helper - only hell
Can excercise these methods and excel
That takes in slow beheadings sheer delight
While victim Nicolas Berg screamed horrified,
We are in darkest ages now thrown back
Of torture, horse-drawn quartering and rack. .
Barbaric measures practiced to derail
Heroic toil, so chaos may prevail;
Their nature true is shown - of animals,-
A nature foul and beastly that appalls.
For terror’s masters know of savagery,
We cannot even fathom its degree,
Outrage! and still bare-faced the thugs blaspheme!
Invoking Allah - God Almighty’s name!
Down with the ski masks! Abu Ghrabi is
A spa compared with the atrocities
Of terror masterminds' and flunkeys' horde,
That practice slow beheadings as a sport.
In Allah’s name are done deeds of the pit,
May Allah punish them as He sees fit.
What crimes against the Spirit of God’s love!
Who heard of shocking blasphemies enough,
This is why our soldiers fight and spar-
Against the forces of deep hell they war,
Let not this earth be ruled by savagery,
Lord grant against such evil victory.!

FANTASTIC ed JUST FANTASTIC....THIS POEM WILL LAST THE AGES FOR SURE.
Because of the negativity of the press that's all we hear........but the Good Lord is watching and he is near. The time is very soon now when he will intervene.......they won't be able to fight against his forces.....then it will end.
Marvelous poem showing our history all over the world. Very sick, very sad, and like you said.........ruled by savagery!
Good work indeed!
love

I think that you, like many people, are so far up the government's collective ass that u fail to see that the beheading of Michael Berg and the torture of the Iraqi POWs are one and the same... both HORRIBLY wrong. Like many Americans however u seem to think that other people are below you and that they have no feelings. There is a little thing called the Geneva Convention that says, basically, to treat prisoners well. Both the Islamic terrorists and American terrorists (yes... American TERRORISTS you read that correctly) failed in this and should BOTH be brought to justice. I am always continually amazed to see people somehow, through their own skewed logic, justify the mistreatment of Iraqi POWs, but scream bloody murder at the killing of Michael Berg. I shake my head in sadness... but I do commend you for writing a very good poem, very poignantly penned.
