The Terrorist
He was born from a well of family unlike many
Educated in a good school with many others
They fondly remmember what were his likes
They say he was of a good demeanor and calm
So it pains to pen that after school and a course
The frustration of persistent lack of employment
Led the Valiant Gee to open up a Cyber Services
It is in this Cyber services kiosk that he turned dark
Radicalized by diini and teachings of the Bazailim
He chose to take up a stand against his own people
Joining the enemy he was trained in urban warfare
He had to create a facade choosing to mary a girl
Who was well brought up in a Christian setting
The marriage had all the bliss of Islamic Ndoa
It was a union of love and Diini allowed it
As they of Islamic conviction are allowed to
Marry from the people of the Kitab with a subsequent
Changing of religion of the spouse to march the hubbys
Afterwards so it was set he moved to the big capital city
Becoming a respected member of a good neigbourhood
Albeit he was a key member of a dreaded sleeper cell
They call AlKaeda an offshoot of the Arab terror group
Their cell operating in East Africa was tasked with a Key
Task of identifying running reckon and operationalizing
Their Mission Indentified a five star hotel in the Suburban
Thus in that fateful day their foward advance agent
Blew himself up at the entrance of the grand hotel
With our Gee and his aids shooting anything at sight
Ultimately the security agents overcame them killing them
In his pocket was found a love note addressed to his wife
Claimed he they would meet in the after life if he dies Shahid
He had secretly a day to the attack secreted her out of country
His deeds were condemned by Muslims and Christians alike
His religion still maintains it advocates for peace but it was
The terrorists hiding behind Diini who are to blame for this affair
The media wondered how he hoped His last letter to his wife
Would ever get to her as she was being hunted and in hiding
I pondered how else when on TV you openly display the letter
We all condemn his deeds but can identify with the sentiments
That drove this once good soul to blood lust and the shedding
The abominable shedding of innocent blood over a political cause
Albeit sheilded in religious undertones radicalization n hidden hate
#Footnote: I firlmly condemn terror in all it forms
