Underworld and Afield

After the notoriety spread
a number of stories
about origin
a common denominator
their savagery

a particularly bloody scene
and concluded with the words
a story heard the actions
compared with these
so pleased that proceeded

their heyday
the prospect of being
otherwise feared
the emergent
a unique type was named

with no set underneath
the drum stabbing
a tactic
a victim behind
the chance

death was still
of the style influential
spoken by the silent
about which
a fragment still exists
