Why did I do it?


Why did I do it?

Why does my heart ache?
Why so much pain do I take?
To nurture something so fake….
Aye, to nurture something so fake.
Blinded was I, by the money in the purse,
Fogged was I, by the gallantry terse.
All that was but an act of commerce
And alone was I, amid the concourse.
Finally I gathered strength to through away,
That flower which never was mine any day.
For so it pricked my hand all day,
That I bled tears all along the way

Terrorists


                                     Terrorists

Disowned by their very own race
They have but a disfigured face.

To slay and rob, their deaf feet scurry,
Unto their very ends they do hurry

They stand for what, they do not know
Their camps and tents they do not show

They prod for men with bombs and guns
Prodding their hearts they've seldom done

What do they get? Where is the gain?
Excepting tear-flood, carcass, unhealing pain.
