Saddam is gone, his beastly head
hoisted upon the pike of Americanism
Saddam is gone, but the flag
has innocent seeps and stains
to show the valor for it
.
Uday went away some time ago,
the bloody blasphemy of his life cut short
Saddam fought on to avenge his sons
and our men, our women were in the blunt
.
We fought and fight on, despite skewed cause
but the prominence of this man caught
brings a sense of hope and pride
no matter the side
.
With Bombast and vigor we fought,
tireless in shifts, lonely yet
for home and hearth, but now
some may be home for Christmas
excepting those lost in death
.
Is this a victory to the mother,
who's child died in our bombardment?
Will she say he could have taken him deep in the night, or will she merely weep
for each moment he wouldn't fight

Was his capture really worth the death and destruction inflicted? And all under the guise of humanity.
This exceptional writing raises many questions.
Outstanding piece!
"Saddam Captured!?!" is a poem that many millions may read and conclude their own feelings on what the magic words of honor can strike.
This poem, "Saddam Captured!?!" delivers a message that could save the world of a possible blood's deluge, if the - THE FIVE MAIN TERRORISTS OF THE PLANET EARTH - housed at The United Nations as "The Five Permanent Members of U.N. Security Council", read, - YES, if they read this "Saddam Captured!?!" - and think on what they are doing... ah, I am sorry! I was supposed to talk on the poem.
I did enjoy the contents, the message into the socio-philosophical and poetical deliverance and Voice.
Thank You for preparing the ground for the soldiers of Justice.
May You, Poet Tyler Joseph Wiseman, enjoy a Memorable Season.
My gratitude, respect and admiration.
