Nehpets Gnik Poet Double Dactyl

Je Suis Charlie

Please note this is written in Dactyl Verse and not Double Dactyl

Charlie je suis, Charlie je suis
Je suis Charlie
Freedom is us
Freedom of speech
No to violence 

Twenty-five killed, twenty-five killed
Twenty-five dead
Extremism in void
No to maniacs
Profane false prophets 

Zealots must die, zealots must die
Zealots begone
Fanaticism must end
Yahweh is One,
Allahu akbar

Marching for unity, marching for unity
Marching to be free
Heroics not needed
Martyrs are not on offer
March or die

Charlie je suis, Charlie je suis
Je Suis Charlie
Freedom cry for all
Gagged mouths is slavery
Tongue tied not for me

Twenty-five dead, twenty-five dead
Twenty-five killed
Families bereaved
Children orphaned
Zealots must die.
