Rico Leffanta Poet Limerick

Allah and the Profit

ISIS-K blew up a girls' school*
al-Qaida claim flogging is cool
No girl is worth
A clump of earth
Wherever the Taliban rule

Jihadists strive to be lanky
To decapitate a Yankee
If Allah were judge
Would He prefer fudge
To another bloodstained hanky? 


*whilst school was in session!

Valsa George December 7, 2021 at 7:31 AM Love the title, dear friend ! Rico Leffanta December 7, 2021 at 11:22 AM What a world! The Taliban happily blew up Afghanistan and murdered its talent; now they "own" a desolate land with starving people and they seek this world's benevolence?

Lindsay Laurie August 30, 2021 at 6:57 PM Hello Rico ... you have to ask yourself; who finances these excuses for humans. They're no more than oxygen thieves - thanks Rico - Lindsay Rico Leffanta August 31, 2021 at 11:12 AM and unvaccinated COVID-19 patients are discovering Honolulu is quickly exhausting its supply of oxygen!

Mystic Rose Rose August 29, 2021 at 4:18 PM scary stuff heh, Rico Leffanta August 30, 2021 at 11:16 AM Not as scary as running out of virgins! Left to themselves, Jihadists will run out of women to kill leaving only other Jihadists . . ..

L Milton Hankins August 29, 2021 at 1:36 PM So sad, Rico...yet, so true, unfortunately. Rico Leffanta August 30, 2021 at 11:14 AM Jihadists treat women as they want others to treat their mother and sisters, but it seems Allah has a shortage of virgins for them, so ISIS-K determined Allah needed their direction and assistance, hence the slaughter of school girls, but murdering women in a maternity ward defies explanation!

Ilene Bauer August 29, 2021 at 12:08 PM Such a sad situation there! Great poem, Rico! I especially love the play on words in the title… Rico Leffanta August 30, 2021 at 11:12 AM Quite a change from Kahlil Gibran's, "The Prophet" . . . .
