An Ode to a Terrorist!!

Oh draconian brute!

Neither you belong to philanthropy,

Nor you are an animal

For even wildest ones, of them all

Are not to this gamut cruel.

Then who you are?

Oh alien being!

With such malicious aspiration

You slay the ones who want to live

For themselves and their children.

Oh ruthless demon!

Who is your god?

What creed do you believe in?

For no doctrine prevails today

Exonerating such dismay.

Oh sanguinary brat!

Come flaunt your clique,

You reckon you got the audacity?

Come speak to me; the altruism

Who has suffered to utmost capacity.

Oh bloody terrorist!

Come show your filthy face!

Display your evil breeds!

For you have enlivened the courage

Instilling the bravado spirit in me

Through all your bloodless deeds.

Its your fiasco and not mine

As I got to defy your relentless crimes

By sacrificing the precious lives

Which yet had to live……..

By oblation of the flowers yet to blossom

By besieging the stars yet to shine

By killing the infant yet to born

Nothing can indemnify

The massacre I came along

The holocaust I have born

Yet, I live up everyday

With no grotesque mind

With no dejected soul

Oh sordid beast!

Let me tell you

I live my triumph

You live your thwart

As you live a heartless life

And I keep going with my humane heart……
