The Taliban all took a test
To see who would govern the best
If Win, Place or Show
Muhammad will know
Exactly which ones to arrest

The Prototype

Any schoolgirl in Afghanistan
Makes a target for the Taliban
God gave Eve a brain
But failed to explain
That a brain will backfire in a man!

Taliban Murderers In Pakistan

Why do I hope 
there is a Hell,
while wishing 
to escape its 
clutches myself?
Because I want 
there to be a
special Hell 
for those who
kill children.

not enough cognition to fulfill his role
lost his balls and his jacks

stumbling to Oz down a bloody brick road

Premium Member How Could We Ever Forget

Remember September eleven
   How could we ever forget? --

A Helmand Soldier

Here I am
In Afghanistan
To protect the people from the Taliban
But
The Imam
Laughs at me
Says
Stupid man
This
Is your Vietnam
You’ve been here now
Near 10 Ramadans
And
Still you cower
In your armoured vans

Premium Member 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.

Three Cheers for Afghanistan
  Twenty years since US invaded
  Terrorist strongholds raided
    Al Qaeda eliminated
     
Yet ere we depart, it's fallen apart
  Terrorism's once again strong
  The 'government's' the Taliban
Play taps for Afghanistan

Brexit Pandemic Climate Taliban

Remember Brexit and how it was the worst CRISIS to ever happen, 
since then....
we've had a global pandemic, climate change 
America replaced Trump with someone more deranged 
it took 9 days for the Taliban to invade Afghanistan
the media kept saying CRISIS it appeared like Candyman

Allah and the Profit

ISIS-K blew up a girls' school*
al-Qaida claim flogging is cool
No girl is worth
A clump of earth
Wherever the Taliban rule

Jihadists strive to be lanky
To decapitate a Yankee
If Allah were judge
Would He prefer fudge
To another bloodstained hanky?

Placebo Wars

?
Why
are
Marines
and Army
Soldiers fighting in
Afghanistan and
Iraq, against the Taliban and the Al Qaida
Against an enemy who hides in the mountains,who once ruled by intimidation
We are not winning these wars, we are merely a placebo,being injected into an infection
of radicals, when will it end
war

Premium Member Down the Drain

Taliban knocking on doors in Afghanistan
   Trouble brewing in Pakistan

China hints at attacking Taiwan
   Dare we hope Taiwan can hang on 

All the while Mr. Kim launches rockets
   North Koreans suffer, so he has deep pockets

While we are tied up with Ukraine
   The rest of the world goes down the drain

Premium Member Kites

Fly kite
Cut hands
Rob lands
Taliban

Children’s scars
Biblical fears
Commandments near
Steal not anothers' tear

Escape the evil hands
No music, no happiness
Dance your way to the Promised Land
Leave the blood and mountains of sand

The old ones die
So that the young may fly
In a new land
Without Taliban

Four Haiku

Senryu 
 Only a fall leaf  
Blows where the wind takes it
We take the omnibus  

Senryu 
Oak leaf scours asphalt 
Autumn´s  worn out dead beat
Can´t dance tango

Rainfall in Yemen 
Taliban under umbrellas 
 Listen out for drones

Slam of a car door and voices 
The song of life

Premium Member Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep, 2021

Now  I lay me down to sleep
Dear Lord, allow me, my head to keep?
Insane Taliban, coming to our shores,
Heavy padlocks on all my doors!


If one Killer, into my house comes,
Beneath my pillows, I do have a gun.
Will use it too, without reservation!
I intend to stay alive, in this American national

Evacuation

Remember when the Taliban 
took back Afghanistan 
from an international coalition
led by the American 

When enemies 
became friendlies 
invading their own 
territories 

Fighting ISIS 
avoiding crisis 
which evil 
is the nicest 

as the crowds stood packed
still the terrorists attacked 
killing their own people 
as the loyalty was cracked

Suicide Bombers

Those who kill innocents are cruel,
Their bodies will always be hell’s fuel,
Islam teaches about honor and dignity,
Care and love for the whole humanity,
But black sheeps are found everywhere,
Like KKK or Taliban, “Be aware”,
They do things on their own,
Their very own people, they disown.

T	hose beautiful little girls you tried to kill
A	 s they waited in their school van at the end of the day
L	ive another day to remind you, once again, you've failed!

I	n terrible suffering, yet they shine for the whole world to see
B	e it known, innocent blood cries for better tomorrows
A	nd like the dust beneath the feet of these little ones
N	ever will you rise to the heights for which you murder to attain!

Imbeciles

Have you seen what's going on in Afghanistan and all that's gone wrong caused by the Taliban driving the country into rack and ruin with impunity is what they're doing it's what they've done it would be good to put them on the run better yet eliminate those Barbarians at the gate yes it would be best to dress each one in a suicide vest then blow their tiny minds up the Khyber to Kingdom Come

Premium Member The Last Flight Out

The Last Flight Out Written: by Miracle Man September 2, 2021 Aircraft disappeared into the Kabul sky, minutes later Taliban flooded the street. They painted themselves to be the good guy, firing into the air celebrating our retreat. This last flight ended the U.S.A.’s longest war, now anguish exists for those left behind. But our way of exit was not top drawer, left to die were some who were with us aligned.
