Visit Indonesia Year
a gun pointed at me
at the Presidential Palace
I was taking pictures in front of the Palace when two guards started shouting and ran towards me, one from the left and another from the right. One was even pointing his gun towards my direction. I was startled but did not run as I wondered whether it was wrong to take pictures of the Presidential Palace, which is a major attraction in Jakarta. Perhaps they thought I was a terrorist - I was wearing a helmet and carrying a black bag.
Had a similar thing happen in Muscat outside the palace there...scary eh? ...nice haiku....

So far as a poem goes, I don't think you should really have to provide any explanation to a poem. Especially a haiku should stand for itself.
