FALSE CAUSE

Elite few for their political reasons & scheming

in deception drew many feeble fellows with a tint of religious emotion

Men who do evil in the name of good and serve the devil in the name of God

Wonder why we would worship deities if we have...

Villanelle: The Dilemma of the Non-Violent- 38

More the man-made gods the more the quarrel
Who wants to pray in a private night-club
Each faithful thinks his god’s beyond riddle

Where faithfuls gather their gods aren’t idle
Rather would they arm theirs to teeth with club
More the man-made gods the...

The Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Thirty

While the Mullah versed in the Hadith and fiqh harangued his flock
All over the milling crowds outside plastic cups did hands lock
By four even before the dazzling Cyclop-eye pierced the gloom
The mosque’s Administrator convened a crisis meeting ad...

i want to freeze this moment
to paste all this feelings
into one moment in time
these smells
theses thoughts
these sounds around me

the tuk tuk i am in reaches town
and from the mosque nearby
the mwadhini calls out loud
"Allah Akbar"
the faithfuls;
men in stark white robes
and women in shimmering black buibuis

The Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Twenty

Trillion pin-pricks of the sticky mists surround the mosque’s turret
Shrouding the pallid angular slabs of the Faithfuls outlet:
Even the muzzled pit-bulls marshaled out in the cold winced.
At the sharp tweet of the Commandant’s whistle car-lights uplit

Like some otherworld...

nonsense purity
polymer
a squeezing of something

weak elbows,
furrowing brow
the smell of a polish
delicatessen on
his breath
Oh come

Dear sister

I am in my third year first semester
I hope you see yourself past that
You have to be perfect if you want to be like them
But write to me that all is done

See, the stars are heading towards mars
The faithfuls are hungry over mass
And the nation's treasury needs a political pass.

Broken pieces of human dignity
Lies scattered on the earth of greed.
Able bodied men strangling themselves to feed,
Still corpse leave messages of futility.

To hell to this life of...

The silky waves of mist caress
the temple, lost in times of dust,
and all the memories of past
within, in silent tenderness.

It's been a long time since in-here
the last steps left as gift their sound,
and on the stony steps around
there's nothing now - no hope, no fear...

There gathered some undaunted faithfuls
Yelling with desperacy without moderacy
Screaming to be heard by the Son of Man
Not satisfied until they hear from the 
The Son of Mary the wife of a Joseph 

Hundreds of unwavering believers
With one soul to be delivered
From the shackles of the...

WHY TROUBLED WHEN YOU CAN’T FUMBLE
WHY COMPLAIN WHEN THERE ARE NO CONSTRAINS
