In Love With Terror

And as her thinning lips curved into the smile in her brain,
she looked in to the camera's eye and said "I loved him..." again.
But that was decades ago in the streets of Stockholm,
when the Russians winked and gave them ammo and vodka.

And only centimetres from the screen I listened and saw
that even though her skin was fifty she was youth at the core.
I found an ever growing yearn to kiss her beautiful form,
but then the interview concluded and the image went off...
she was a member of B-Bader Meinhoff.
