A missile fell on to this Polish place;

The media rushed to report the case.

We screamed: ‘Help! Article Five! We are doomed!’

The end of our selfish existence loomed.

But this has turned out as a false alarm,

And none of us this end will come to harm,

Unlike two poor devils who are no more;

The latest victims of this evil war.

Collateral damage their final lot,

They paid the ultimate price in this plot.

Will the real villains answer for this crime?

Though World War Three was avoided this time,

We should watch out, for the next such occasion

Could erupt into a conflagration.
