London - 7/7/05

by Marie Delgado Travis

You pop a vitamin
Every morning,
Eat the right foods,
Exercise regularly,
Work hard to support your family,
Attend church on Sundays,
... do all the right things.
But how do you keep from
Being blown up by your local
friendly neighborhood jihadist?
Obviously, you can't reason with him.
Fact is Osama has18 children
And not one of them
Has blown him or herself up.
They're all in hiding
(with their millions)
Precisely to avoid a
Martyr's death. Pity.
It's enough to raise
A red flag to anyone
Preparing to don a jacket
Filled with explosives.
Indeed, why you?
You eat the right foods,
Exercise regularly,
Attend mosque on Fridays..."
