Premium Member The Object of Worship - Psalm 96: 7-9
We all have the capacity to worship
having been created for that noble matter
but we're so full of self-loving ourselves
telling everyone we know so full of chatter

God has designed us to worship Him
and only Him alone for He is God alone
the atheist has removed God from...

My Fathers Last Ramadan - 96 Years Old
THEN:
The first day of Ramadan,
We all gathered at your house
All year, we were waiting for this day,
For your stories, advices and prayers.
Except, your orders to your children:
“You level the ground,” “you spread the rug,”
“You bring the drinks,” “you bring the foods.”
The children scared of your...

COPLA 96 INVOCATION : This Bad Guy World

How bad’s the Bad Guy State on its own
Strangles own peoples by its laws :
Rule by fear

Can the State’s only aim be foregone :
Shore up flagging image in the jaws –
Horse for Lear

Leaders come together to control
Wayward gods...

Untitled '96 - 2
You had hoped for tears
in some peculiar way,
you almost wished to weep
but did not.
You almost wished to weep
but did not bother.
You had no desire 
to break your languishing comfort
in search of the chain of paper -
conveniently, smirkingly soft -
that would clear the morose slime
from your...

Liverpool a Day In the Life of the 96
A day in the life of the 96

I heard the news today, Oh lord
About 96 humming birds
Breathing in the miracle heard

And though the news was rather sad
I had to laugh

A crowd of people stood and stared
And seemed to mouth the words
Justice for our dead

I saw...

96 Reasons - Hillsborough
96 fans awoke that day 
travelled to Sheffield to see their heroes play 
96 had tickets for Leppings Lane 
96 never returned home again 
96 people packed in, gasping for breath 
praying for life enduring death 
96 names etched on a memorial plaque, 
next to...

Untitled '96 - 1
Unsuspecting feline, magnificent, wretched,
luxurious and warm on my lap.
One day you will die.
I may live forever, or not.
You will surely die.

melting ice on barren trees

And He has made the night for us to take a break
And the sun and the moon for time calculation -
The Mighty Wise Allah has made it in such a fashion....

I always thought of you each day,
Never missed a one.
Each time it changed,
Varied as the years passed.
Every day I still think of you.
Rainy late nights could be the saddest.
My eyes would tear at what they missed.
Etched in my memory my mistakes.
Aware of time.
Now adays I...
