Just In
there were twenty-one, no,
it was only eight, or nine, no,
it was nearer to thirty-something
that exploded to the headlines
they were all soldiers and contractors
no, they were government officials and police,
- no, maybe it was vendors and washer women
no, it's believed, it was play-yard kids
there was a large explosion
no, was a hail of gunfire,
or reported assailants with machetes,
actually, it may have been bare hands and fists
the enemies haughtily claim responsibility
no, it was that other faction they think,
no, it might have been a crazed loner, no -
no-one has claimed responsibility
relief and reporters are in route
more updates as events occur
