Jan Allison Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Pandemonium

Panic, crying and screaming - sheer chaos ensues
Airport is on automatic security shut down
Nobody knew bombs were going to be detonated
Dead and injured litter the check in area
Everybody else runs for their life
Many are separated from their families
Only hoping and praying their loved ones are safe
No one knows where or when terrorists will strike 
I cannot comprehend why these atrocities happen
Ugly scenes we are seeing all too frequently across the world
Maybe one day in the future we have peace

Hillard Sarver August 3, 2016 at 7:40 AM This is a great poem about the blackness that some twisted humans do. The sad thing is often terrorists, do this by the name of their religion. There can never be a personal belief system that is "the truth" and condones this behavior. It is a dark corruption and does not belong in the collective consciousness of mankind. Well done. Jan Allison August 3, 2016 at 7:50 AM It's so heartbreaking to see these atrocities on the news Hillard and as you say these despicable acts are done in the name of religion:-( hugs Jan xx

Andrea Dietrich August 3, 2016 at 6:05 AM Well done, jan.
