Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Could It Happen?

Chaos came at the Pentagon.
The call went to the President.
A subversive phenomenon
Triggered a red alert event.
Computer systems went haywire,
That were the first line of defense.
The situation was quite dire.
Programs only sputtered nonsense.
Maybe missiles were on their way
From enemies, or maybe not.
To be or not to be the day
Of Armegeddon striking hot.

Who brought us to defenseless doom? -
A teenage hacker in her room.
