Sometimes I think
My computer is plotting against me
And only me!
Trying deliberately to drive me mad.

They, them, those people 
Are lying, not relying 
On God. Lying...

They pretend it is in...

Little Salam sleeps to the sound of the river Jordan

Unaware of the narrative of two thousand years

Or some glorious eternity still waiting to happen


Tucked into nappies donated by the...

These judging walls.
Ever always must I ignore their calls.
Their hushed whispers and silent screams,
Unendingly poisoning my tormented dreams.
Tossing, turning, then bolting upright...
But merely waking ends not the maddening plight.
Unceasingly the murmurs burn my ears;
Ruthlessly parading...

You spit...
