Monster on the Leash

The monster is held on the leash
so hopes the masters who retreat
to fighting fire with their own
when darkness falls on their homes

even though their tamed beast
would be construed as obscene
by any measure brought to bear
this damnation all should fear

attacking targets of their choice
assurance given they’ll be destroyed
with collateral that may extend
to believers of their blend

some shared blood must be shed
for the offense to be led
by the monster on the leash
pray that links remain complete.

Author's Note
The poem “Monster on the Leash” is about the desire for a political movement to to use their man as an offensive measure against a secular world thought much worse, with a price paid for souls now and the viability of the future for the same.
