FOREIGN AFFAIR

by Ikhwanul Halim

Camaro-And-Helicopter-728x455.jpg

propeller wheezing in harmony,
  a chopper flying low, nervously
    tear up the sky on capital of greece
      with a monarch on the run, away

      a twang was pounding to pieces
    for his ear: just rock music melody
  hot jet bursts increase,
doppler law along with mayday

straightforward to the land of never-ever-in-peace
  glance at the watch made in suisse
    arrow tip marking the wind, steadily
      smoothly, landed on an antique quay

      escorted her royal highness to the enemy;
   once again he’s gone; as never he exist.

It reads like a robert ludlum book. I guess you are describing the motions of an aircraft along with some captured person. Being taken away to safety, or worse to a hide out. I like the formatting.

Good write up, hoping to see more of you as the challenge progresses:).

You've strike this one right, mate!

Thank you. I hope I will have enough energy for the next day assignment 😊

You have a good ide for poetry. But, I think, you must try to use contemporer tiphography and new metaphore...

Thank you, bro @ahmadunyh...

baling-baling bambu mah kepunyaan Doraemon

Kalau bolang-baling malah dijual di Sekatenan dan bisa dimakan 😁

Thank you for your support, bro @blogiwank
