Terrorist Awareness.

Isssit and watch the doors in and out,

Unceasing, awareness, vigilance,

Not afraid, not beaten, we survive.



The train starts, smooth ride, then stops, doors open,

Faultlessly, confidently, disgorging,

Men, women, boys, schoolgirls, to workplace.



I think of the way the scum lives,

Furtively, terroristic, brainwashed,

I stand up, walk forward to freedom.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Wrote this on underground rail, just after the terrostic attacks in London. a sort of defiant message.

This is a universal word that covers so much that is unrighteous, deceitful, lowlife, unworthy...I felt the poem unfinished, so many ways to describe terrorists~~~Lady A
