SUICIDE BOMBER BY O'REAL

suicide bomber

°

there are many ways to make hell

with your hands clean- 

.

there is evil everywhere, even in

the oxygen we breathe-

.

that is why our noses are fatal weapons 

fixed to the socket of our face-

.

they fail to alert us of dangers

like death knocking on doors 

with a silent knuckle

.

this is for those with fuses fused

to their unwillingly bodies,

and those who share the consequences. 

.

heavens with sights & sounds of solaces

are painted 

in their deluded brains. 

.

now, they just want to see, to believe.

but they do not want to go alone-

.

every man is unselfish, 

who wants to share misfortune with mankind...

.

evil is an innocent man blindfolded 

to the innocence of women and children 

.

then boom!!!

.

when the time is up, 

everybody's body knows about it. 

.

but their ghosts narrates

how the story went,

.

because their flesh would become too ugly

for man to sit with

at the moonlight tale of tragedy.
