FRIENDLY FIRE
A Haiku Revue
Temper tossed away,
Clipping pins from live grenades,
Lobbing verbal bombs.
Hair-trigger anger,
Set off by a sudden noise,
Post-traumatic stress.
Who did this to you?
And who painted the target
On peacemaker's back?
Call off the bombers.
The secret snipers are gone.
No reason to shoot.
