How to Build a Bomb

How to Build a Bomb

add two parts oppression
blend sadness, loneliness, fear
a dash of ignorance
mix in hubris, egotism, vanity

bring to boil
broil, blacken
let cook
bake covered
bake uncovered
let cool

pour into pressure cooker
sprinkle with terror
garnish with counter-terror

turn on high




[Day #25 --- poem a day challenge for National Poetry Month. ]
