we risk leaving our minders to
walk round the town
passing through narrow alleys
scenes of minefields, looking for
signs of chemical weapons and dead bodies
trekking across hostile terrain
looking for the Taliban
hes in trouble again after disappearing
from the radar across the border
tracking tensions
that heighten by the hour
what with the no fly zone and military strikes
whisking into the deserted centre
there are plenty of tanks and armoured cars
we pull all the strings and pass
through makeshift camp, thronged with tents
there are barely any
guests just a skeleton service
spooks monitor everything
there is no phone service
and no internet ...
we are edgy and wired
and its catching
