Big fish - Small pond
Psychopaths gathering,
sniffing out brutality and blood.
Daesh is calling them home.
Fish in a barrel Pa, fish in a barrel! *
–Erthona
*As it would have been disruptive to the poem I did not write the last line in the dialect of the people who would use the phrase. Just for fun, a general approximation (as it is covering a large swath of rural folks below the Mason–Dixon line) would sound something like this:
"Fayesh an awh bay-row Paw"
"Fayesh" is pronounced as a diaeresis, similar to a diphthong.
The phrase signifies the straight-forward (seeing things in their simplest form, or seeing things for what it is) thinking of rural Southerners.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
