A Muslim Spotted With Intoxicating Wine
A muslim spotted with intoxicating wine
A Muslim was spotted with intoxicating wine.
Now, his fantastic job is hanging on the line!
His crashing heart more to the left incline:
A disturbing wish to have this settled with paid fine,
A devout Muslim with a Family of Nine!
Round his poor neck all clustering to dine…
Visibly, a drowning man permitted only salty brine,
For having himself submitted to Ethanol’s Twine,
Forgetful of Devious Devil and the evils he’d design
Over this to pine
And the reality that his job is now mine
And wherever he should, my lucky Christian name sign!
