Who Are Terrorists? Poem by Dr John Celes

What kind of men could terrorists be?
-Who maim and kill for reasons weird;
-Who herd the weakest to Death’s jaws;
-Who do crimes heinous, insane acts;
All in the name of God!

What kind of men could terrorists be?
-Who abduct men at point of guns;
-Who behead them / shoot them point-blank;
-Who spare not e’en the kids who sleep;
All in the name of God!

What kind of men could terrorists be?
-Who rape and loot and destroy things;
-Who love to see human blood spilled;
-Who commit suicide if caught;
All in the name of God!

What kind of men could terrorists be?
-Who throw grenades and bomb places;
-Who spare not worshipping –houses;
-Who knife women with babes in wombs;
All in the name of God!

What kind of men could terrorists be?
-Who harm children even at schools;
-Who make the world much insecure;
-Who vow to loosen hell on earth;
All in the name of God!
