What Do These People Mean?

50 people in high mood of jubilation have been killed in Baqdad in a single bomb explosion. Their crime? oh don't ask.... they were out in the streets to celebrate for Iraq's soccer victory over Saudi Arabia. Sad indeed.

Iraq won the ball
People celebrated
But as joy soared
A bomb went off
Sucking euphoria
Into a pool of blood
Wading jubilation
Into a sea of tragedy
Averting merry laughter
Into hysterics of nutty wails
Turning the briskly scene
Into an abandoned graveyard
En-livened with the whistles
Of a ghost in its former soul
Is it a crime to rejoice victory?
Is it punishable by death?
What do these people mean?

This is so sad, and needless..."Wading jubilation
Into a sea of tragedy" When will it end?

Peace,
Dan

So sad, so inhuman. You have captured the feelings of frustration and horror so well.

Brother Abdi I think hell on earth isaptly symbolized by these lunatic fanatics who follow a God of evil, I don't mean Allah, I mean evil. I'm beyond saddened as I'm sucked into hatred of ALL fanatics no matter what religion they pretend to believe in. SHAME! <Mikii>

Another truly barbaric act of man, and there are far too many of them.

Abdi,
They are fools. And will be dealt with accordingly in the very soon hereafter.

It is not what they were celebrating that counted, it's who they were. The other faction killed them in the name of God; and that's what really makes me sick. Sorry for the rant, but the truth hurts. Victor

I don't know what they mean, but they are JUST PLAIN MEAN!
(Realize this. . .Hurting people hurt other people. Sad thing is they don't want people to help them heal so they hurt everyone in their sight for satisfaction which of course, Bro. Abdi, never comes.

I pray for sanity if not on the outside, then peace on the inside as well.
