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. ]
