The small group of refugees stuck together
as if in a family unit
young men and women with one intent
minds aligned to hate
despising those who did not think their way
or in their beliefs pray!
Had it in their minds to cause the west mayhem
each focused on the same path
those who did not follow in their philosophy
were a target to harm
more twisted thinking none wanting any peace
just hatred and violence to release!
Through history they were not a new evil breed
but part of a radical creed
thus everybody was wrong if they did not agree
narrowly fixated without grace
within their suicidal cruel and sadistic thought
the innocent a solution sought!
Not caring who were the people they obliterated
or upon which powerful nation
the planet has become an endless battleground
where populations exist in fear
uncertain where any safety could ever be found
and fanatics no more their lives to hound!
Yet with spiralling terror when all is said and done
no matter what background most folks are one!
