[bodytext] =>  Watch how they milk the Abu Ghrabi tale,- Milk it adroitly while the hours tick, But Oh!!~ most profiteering pundits fail To give the same amount of time to Nick Nick Berg’s decapitation is kept hid, More in the background,- rather cavalier,, They don’t allow the time for a repeat, For viewers need not watch, nor see and hear!. And Al Jazeera with consistency Shows Abu Ghrabi’s mischief day and night, But keeps with skill the bestiality Of Nicolas Berg’s beheading from our sight. The worthy network says “It is a Fake,” “A trick played out by USA TV“-- Thus I entreat you friends, do stay awake Lest “Fake” be dubbed some worse atrocity! Some “urbane” media pundits and their ilk Will cling to Abu Ghabi steadfastly, Conjoint with Al Jazeera they will milk, Exploit the touchy issue endlessly Remind these chaps of David Perlman, The Wall Street Journalist- a handsome Jew, Who got his head chopped off in Pakistan And young Fabrizio Quattrocchi too And the contractors hanging from a bridge, Strung up grotesquely by some blood-stained paw,- Most hideously mutilated each, And Nicolas Berg’s head sliced off with a saw. .. Tradition ancient,- honored to this day,- Chop off the heads of the annoying foes! And put them on a stick for wide display, And for diversion cut off ears and nose!. A zestful football game with lots of cheer Took place in Gaza,- Oh what gay event!- Thugs kicked a human head from front to rear As football,-- and a severed human hand . Frustration, - troops are bid “Restraint, Restraint!, Five minutes before striking victory,- A punk holed up within the mosque is faint, And needs on ammunition heaps to pee.. Perhaps it is a wise thing to awake And look at the prevented recent coup,* Our culture and existence is at stake, And all we hold most dear and cherished too.. Why do some people asks for ever more: “How come we are at war and not at peace? Why are our solders battling,- why this war? --‘Cause open are the jaws of the abyss“!... It matters not that poets do deplore,-- This kind of horror is beyond their word, But they can bring their clamors to the fore: “MARANA THA! - MARANA THA! - come Lord!” by: Elizabeth Dandy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> *Foiled Al Qaeda - Abu Musab al-Zarqyawu’s - attack in Jorden to kill with Poison Gas 80,000 people.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
