Suicide Bomber
SUICIDE BOMBER
Explodes the night in lines of fire
With traces of burning ember -
Gone in a flash. Results are dire.
Only the victims remember
Losing arms, legs. They dismember
Their feelings so the pain can’t hurt :
Can’t recall last November..........
A man, a bomb strapped to his shirt.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
