WARNING!
controversial satire
Your reward will be a thousand rupees
if you go ahead down to the market
letting off a bomb to make as many casualties as possible,
in cash, with guaranteed security,
provided that you get away with it.
The suicide bomber thanked them well
but wanted payment in advance.
The fully covered terrorists
with only eyes to let in any light
could see enough to exchange meaning glances
and gave the voluntary candidate
the full sum in advance, but on condition:
THE SUCCESS MUST BE COMPLETE!
He promised piously to do his very best
but was not that much of a fool not to be well informed
exactly where his terrorist employers and their chiefs
would meet to make their schemes next time,
he would have a report to make to them;
so that is where he went eventually when time was ripe
and let discreetly down their dried up drain a bomb
which went off powerfully detonating most resoundingly
and blowing many well masked and anonymous intriguers
up and maybe all the way to space with such efficiency,
that one could never tell how many or who any of them were
since they were so anonymous and carefully wrapped up and masked.
They were included in the general statistics:
so far six hundred and fifty thousand casualties only
in a war where everyone fights everyone for nothing,
while there is just one who wants to stay there and remain,
who happens to be president of some states in America.
