The Dog in the Dark You heard us coming, so you grabbed your children, to shield your pathetic, worthless life. Suicide vest, Small ones…crying. (all… innocent go to heaven) Black animal, that needs to die. (all… bad dogs, rot in hell) Craven, cowardly, snake… How does it feel to fear? How many did you watch die, and laugh? How many did you see leave, this life, suffering to the last? You are unworthy of the bullets they would have used, had you not taken matters into your own hands. You will not be remembered as anything, more than the dung of camels, left on the streets, for the beetles to eat.
