When the guns will fall silent?

Heartless terror machines
with rounds and rounds of bulletted machine guns
alighted the ship 
onto a way-laid boat
claiming their first victim-
the hapless boatman
who propelled them into
Indian waters-
for heartless was the way they set upon
breathing terror, eating terror
is the way they lived-
 
The terror machines with machines in hand
flopped onto the shores
of the commercial capital
with intent to strangle the commerce out of it-
When everyone dropped gaurd
unexpecting the descent of
a terror brigade it mindlessly barged in
 
waylaying motorcades
to drive into the sprawling
commercial kingdom-
breathing terror speaking terror
through stoccato gun fire
tada-tada, tada-tada, tadadada dud-
smashing lives out of  
the ill-fated innocents
at the ill-fated Chatrapathi Sivaji Terminus, Taj and 
Nariman House- 
blood dotting and streaming down floors 
to tell the tale of the gory act.
 
Terror machines continued to strike
at the counter acting brigade
snuffing out the last of
One Hemant Karkare
One Unnikrishnan
and many innocent victims
 
Battle between terror and the nation raged-
The nation agonisingly watched sleeplessly
the 72 hour ordeal
with bated breath
The Nation won the terror
proving the dictum-
the bad gunners will be slain by the guns.
 
Hail the matyrs! Hail the innocent vitims! Hail the nation!
Keep vigil against the terror machines!
Nip the diabolic intentions in the bud 
to silence the guns forever
Jai Hind!
