Let Terror End

















Let the constant companion of fear
exit through the back gate
and disappear

so the chronic ache at my core
can vanish into the ether
like ash from a burning fire.

Remove that ever-present dread
of evil, one who bombarded
my consciousness.

Osama Bin Laden is dead,
let his words dissipate in the wind
and his followers disband

let his body decay at the bottom
of the sea consumed by viper fish
and gulper eels

Let his reign of terror end
so I won’t be afraid
and can live my life again.
