Can you spot the round object
Lying on the ground
By the side of the frayed masonry
No it is not a football
The world cup is long over
No it is not an empty cup
Their cup of woe is already full
It is part of a human skull...
Hours ago it had a face...
Face of a four year old terrorist
Who used to terrorize his young sister
With a toy gun
Bang Bang Bang...
See, you have not missed the target
Your faceless enemy is now neutralized…
