Anthony Bianco Poet Free verse

Biden's Bedouins

Twenty long desert years
sweeping scorpions into their pits
over and over and over again
Now the sweepers are leaving in haste
not enough blood money to be made. 

Scorpions are pouring back out of their pits
Stingers held high above the heads of Biden's Bedouins-

L Milton Hankins August 25, 2021 at 9:07 AM Interesting and thoughtful metaphor, Anthony. Time to leave that pit of vipers, and he's probably doing it as well as anyone else could, don't you think? Anthony Bianco August 25, 2021 at 9:33 AM Thanks for having a look Milton.. sloppy situation. move our citizens and loyalists well before the pullout. Maybe ,,but what do I know I'm just a peon stay safe Godbless Anthony Chetta Achara August 25, 2021 at 9:26 AM No, it has not been done as well as anyone else. You DO NOT abandon our military base before you evacuate civilians, and you definitely DO NOT leave all of our military equipment for the Taliban!
