What can be said to one turned terrorist?
Determined to misinterpret scripture,
winnow words of love but garner stricture,
proud in their hate, a confirmed errorist

who calls another murderer and then,
scruples not to slaughter the innocent,
who'd wilfully embrace gross ignorance,
and state this is my gun holding a pen,

smugly add my words are ammunition,
demands respect though morally defunct,
attempts to preach though patently up-jumped,
be ready to kill for some attention.

What can be said to one who's lost his way,
has been so unconscionably led astray?
