Et Tu, Brute?

I was awakened before dawn
To discover I had no address
For sending the terrorists
My home-made bomb.
And what are you doing
With a home-made bomb?
My Conscious-state wanted to know.

It’s a misnomer! I was
Barely able to say
Struck with a terror
Only home-made terrorists
Can feel when a shoe box
Looks ominous and their bomb
Threats reveal
There’s no cloud nine
To escape their ordeal.

Under their covers,
In early morning hours
They are terrorists too.
