Mentality of a Terrorist

Terrorists know how to matriculate into normal life,
adapating to their surroundings like clever spies,
winning peoples' confidences as they go about their days,
all the while studying their movements and ways,
waiting for the right time to attack or give reason for alarm,
taking their victims off guard,
creating unrest and uncalm,

They are hard to deciper or spot,
because they can warp into any
form or image, having no misgivings
of what they are doing is wrong,
They proceed with their misadventures,
stalworth and strong,
deriving pleasure in every sick, sadistic,
inhuman act,
Once they start, they have the inablity to stop,

Terrorists are of a different mindset,
unable to be decoded or talked down,
Their sense of creating terror is profound
and can only be halted by an act of God,
or an army designed by King Sherrod.
