The helicopter circled <br />above the fighters <br />Below with the machine guns, <br />The occupants of homes <br />Scattered in fright <br />Killing many, injuring so many, <br />The fighter shooting <br />Form the ground, <br />Running zigzag, taking <br />Shelter near the walls <br />Inside the fort like shops, <br />One shot hit the fuel tank, <br />Making it go afore, <br />Bursting into flames, <br />Landing and smashing <br />Into a building, killed <br />The pilot and copilot, <br />Gunners severly injured <br />Knocked out of senses, <br />The commanders <br />And the polticians, <br />Not knowing the pain <br />Of innocence and ignorance <br />Bringing people and many <br />A black hawk down, down, down.<br /><br />RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/black-hawk-down/
