Skunk Trails

Those who have so brutally beheaded

To gain recognition in the civilized world

Have proven what we always have known,

Their barbaric ways serve only to hurt their own cause

Foolishly, many Americans had let the memories fade

We had forgotten and forgiven the atrocities

Now that they remove their sheep’s clothing

They show us, once again, the true vermin that they are

They are a festering boil on the buttocks of humanity

They leave us no choice but to search and destroy

But they won’t be difficult to find

For they leave their skunk trails for us to follow
