Terror Rising

The blood of an evil man,
Spilled upon our world;
A new terror awakens,
A successor soon unfurls

Justice wields its mighty sword,
A mongrel succumbed to fate;
The mighty wings of an eagle,
Left nothing to contemplate

While our nation slumbers,
A serpent sets its course;
Waiting for that moment,
To strike without remorse

Let us slay our prejudices,
Together we'll stand and fight;
Terror stalks our fertile soil,
God bless our land of rights

    Nice job utilizing the animal metaphors to describe the sleeping giant and wily, resourceful antagonist. Nice rhyme scheme! I wrote an epic poem called Osama's Docudrama. If you would like to peruse it, then feel free to do so.
