I saw two men.
It was only 7:00 am then.
In the plane,
Which could be a deadly terrain.

They seemed to be terrorists.
They began to check their wrists.
I wondered if it was a time bomb.
Then one removed his comb.

They looked fierce,
With their ears pierced.
What one could do in such a mess,
When time was less.

I closed my eyes to pray,
That we may not fall prey.
Suddenly the plane landed.
The two men waved at me,
As I felt strangled.

It was a fearsome sight,
I was filled with fright.
One came up to me,
While I was trying to be free.

I shivered and groaned within;
He asked, If I was fine.
I began to hold my breath,
And said, “yes”. Then I released my breath.
