The End of Islam

THE END OF ISLAM 



On the bay beach at Belyounech
Just east of Tangier
From the old whaling Station 
You can see Algeciras and Gibraltar
And there on the beach look up
And see the Rif of the Atlas 
With beyond them ten thousand miles 
Of Sahara sand and muezzins on minarets.
The northern horizon exudes
The smells of hot-dogs 
And the sounds of Pink Floyd.
The south shore on the beach
Is the end of Islam.
