Suicide Bombers

They live in horrid misery,
Barely surviving
In abject poverty,
But imams promise them
A heavenly destiny
With 72 virgins
Fulfilling their fantasy,
Guarantee their families
A life quite sunny,
Paid for
With Iranian money
If they kill the infidel
By blowing themselves up
To escape their earthly hell.
