Seen by his heart so heavy,
Angst at her return
First ever try at a Senryu.

Kids on each knee, papers for his removal

A Helmand Soldier
Here I am
In Afghanistan
To protect the people from the Taliban
But
The Imam
Laughs at me
Says
Stupid man

Is your Vietnam
You’ve been here now
Near 10 Ramadans
And
Still you cower
In your armoured vans...

Pity the Poor Women
Pity the poor women of Afghanistan
In the hands of the ruthless Taliban
Repressed and put down
In a shapeless black gown
At the disposal of any overbearing man.

Yank a Young Yank From Afghanistan
In Afghanistan, understand there was a young yank,
Who from that awful country President tried to yank;
From where we sat,
He is a total dingbat,
And do presume that this is another foolish prank.

A Tall Glass of Kool-Aid

Desertion
There once was a fellow lived in Pakistan
Who married a woman from Afghanistan
She refused the veil
He said "what the hell?"
And went off to join up with the Taliban.

For Love of Countrymen

Replied he, For them I fought in Afghanistan and Iraq too...

Afghanistan ~ "dumb Support"?
Maimed support undone,
the battle won ~
is still that tyranny's succumb
mates jeopardy with truth, upon the run!
Prowess protects more than
the "rule of thumb"!
Support not my position's drum,
If I am able . . . and yet still dumb!...
